It used to be I was trying to deny German history in favor of the Slavs -- now I'm accused of trying to deny Frence history in favor of the Germans. Is this an encyclopedia or a resting-place for irredentism? Sheesh!
I've spoken up on your behalf, for whatever good it will do. Nationalism gets weird.
To be fair, DW writes some really good stuff, but doesn't seem to care that scholarship has moved on in the past 30-50 years if it affects la Gloire de la France. I'm beginning to think there's no room here for experts.
There is. There'd better be--I can't write or research all this stuff, and I'm not an expert, so I need some who are.
