What does /lit/ think of the greatest poet and literary critic of all time? Anonymous 2016-07-17 05:35:00 Post No. 8287758 [Report]

Dan Schneider claims to have written 1500 genuinely great poems. By comparison, the greatest published poet of all time, Rainer Maria Rilke, has only 77: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJrj7WvTt8Y

This makes Dan Schneider a literary genius the likes of which the world has never before seen. Hard to believe? Read his poems and judge for yourself: http://cosmoetica.com/Poetrylinks.htm

I'd link a specific one, but that shouldn't matter, as they're all supposedly great. His wife, of course, is the second greatest poet of all time: http://www.cosmoetica.com/Jessica%20Schneider.htm

He also likes to improve poems written by other authors by cutting out unnecessary lines. He performs such excisions on such beloved greats as Yeats, Eliot, Keats, Frost, Ashbery and plenty of others: http://www.cosmoetica.com/TOP.htm

For some examples of his criticism, see him take 2/3 of the meme trilogy to task:

He's a bit kinder to Ulysses, but also considers it extremely overrated, and feels that the film adaptation is superior: https://web.archive.org/web/20111006165411/http://www.noripcord.com/reviews/film/bloom

He also does interviews with various people, but I'll only link to this one with famed anime voice actor and Star Trek fan film director Vic Mignogna, which I found quite surreal: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEFwT-ko9Ac

In a similar vein, here are Dan Schneider's thoughts on Dan Schneider: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IdJ83GP5cg

So, what are /lit/'s thoughts? Have we all been missing out on a once-in-a-millennium genius, or is he just a phony? BTW I am not Dan Schneider, but you can assume I am if you want to.

Is this some sort of archaic meme or something? I saw this guy and looked through his website once before after seeing Roger Ebert on his blog reply to some guys email that said the email writer and his buddy had been arguing about whether Dan Schneider was a better film critic than Roger Ebert, and the guy basically told Ebert that Schneider was the greatest film critic of all time.

I looked on Schneider's website and I couldn't make fucking heads or tails of what the whole thing was about. Please redpill me on Dan Schneider.

Yes. He's a web 1.0 whackjob that you just point and laugh at like gene ray except with literature instead of time cubes.

His poems and novels are on his website. I read some poems. They were shit, I think. I don't know what makes a poem good, but it read like something I could have wrote if I were a huge faggot.
