The Dialectics of Dialect

When marketing goes wrong in Austria:

“Quotes from H.C. Artmann‘s Austrian-German dictionary provoke public reactions at Vienna Airport. Artmann, Austrian post war avantgardist and recently ‘mainstreamed’ author with quotes from his poems used as ornaments on several buildings (e.g. on the Donauinsel), has posthumously instilled protest by guardians of public morales. 1:0 for the avantgarde spirit!” (quote Kunzelmann/Liebscher, 2011)
