Talk:Louise Farrenc

Untitled
Ok, now I know the source of Jacques-Edme Dumont (Louise Farrenc, or whatever its sources are, most likely) but it still seems wrong. Does anyone have an independent source? Edme seems wrong, but I do not speak French well. Schissel | Sound the Note! 15:43, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Born by her father?
Did she by any chance have a mother, too? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.47.170.35 (talk) 16:06, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

Yet another...
... attempt by feminists to manufacture a 'repressed' star from a mediocrity. Oh dear, she has been 'written out of history' by the patriarchy? Tsk tsk. A great many mediocre male artists of middling ability have disappeared. Their work was 'of its time', it gathered as much kudos as it deserved, and then taste changed and they were forgotten. Who will revive and celebrate the work of unremarkable men? 124.168.123.210 (talk) 21:00, 4 July 2022 (UTC)


 * This is not the place for polemics. We don't care whether reputable sources about notable people were written by feminists, satanists or regular people. Our personal views about our subjects should never play any role in creating and improving articles. Otherwise, the only editors who would ever have anything to do with our Adolf Hitler article would be neo-Nazis, David Irving and their ilk. If you don't want to be involved in improving this article, just go and edit an article on someone or something you do like. Simples. --  Jack of Oz   [pleasantries]  21:16, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Not only that, but Farrenc really is a case of a superb artist who was written out of history by the patriarchy. Male critics were observing it AT THE TIME.  Everybody (everybody knowledgeable, that is) was singing her praises and basically saying, Ah, but because she's a woman, nobody is going to pay attention to her.  And guess what--they were right.  She was not "of middling ability" or "unremarkable."  Her compositions should be taught in music schools. 98.115.255.240 (talk) 19:08, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
