Talk:Panthéon

Initial article necessary?
Is the initial article a necessary part of the name, or would this article better live under Panthéon? AxelBoldt 13:20, 8 Apr 2004 (UTC)

"Homeland" vs. "nation"
I changed the translation of "patrie" from "homeland" to "nation." Even though patrie etymologically means "homeland" it is meant in a more emphatic, er, nationalist sense which would indicate "nation" as a better translation. LeoDV 15:51, 9 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Homeland vs Nation bis / absence of verb
I put back the word "homeland" in place of "nation" because the traduction of patrie is homeland and the traduction of nation is ... nation. It is true that the term "patrie" is much more politicaly oriented in french than homeland is in english (but that is true for all the words of the dictionnary, lol). "Nation" is for sure a political term, a word that puts together the notions of "people", "country" and "state". Maybe the more-close traduction would be "motherland" ("mère-patrie") as after all "patria" comes from "pater" (father): patrie=la terre de nos pères, the land of our fathers. Well anyway, the advice of a real translator would be nice !!

I added a comment and put the word "is" off in the previous translation "To great men the homeland/nation/whatever is gratefull" because this translates in french as "Aux grands hommes la patrie EST reconnaissante", which change the meaning. The absence of verb meaning exactly that "homeland" should NOT be considered as a subject in the sentence ! Precisely because France don't want to claim to make an honnor to its great men by burrying them here, but at the contrary wants to aknowledge the honnor it received from them. - pyc 17:24, 07 April 2007 GMT+1

Marie Curie is missing from the list of interred
Is there a reason Marie Curie is missing from the list of the interred? Her husband is listed and said that his remains are placed with Marie's but it seems strange she does not have her own entry? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 139.80.239.167 (talk) 22:15, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
