Q

I like Koldau’s ‘‘Submarine Myth’’ concept, that the submarine genre encodes abstract fears in a physical instrument of war.

A

Mir gefällt Koldaus Konzept des „U-Boot-Mythos“, dass das U-Boot-Genre abstrakte Ängste in einem physischen Kriegsinstrument verschlüsselt - ich denke das ist die Idee?

Q

The part where Koldau talks about the submarine as having ‘‘the aura of a secret weapon’’ reminds me of Hades’ Helm of Darkness in Greek mythology or Albrecht’s Ring in Der Nibelungen.

A

Der Teil, in dem Koldau davon spricht, dass das U-Boot „die Aura einer Geheimwaffe“ hat, erinnert mich an Hades‘ Helm der Dunkelheit in der griechischen Mythologie oder Albrechts Ring in Der Nibelungen.
