FACTS OR WISHFUL THINKING
MGS3 Connection...?
Ahhhh... The Kojima Style
In scene "Sorrow Easter Egg"
The Line "Die Liebenden"
I reference here
"The loving ones By Bertolt Brecht
Bertolt wrote over 1000 German poems...
About Bertolt
"Epic Theatre proposed that a play should not cause the spectator to identify emotionally with the characters or action before him or her, but should instead provoke rational self-reflection and a critical view of the action on the stage. Brecht thought that the experience of a climactic catharsis of emotion left an audience complacent. Instead, he wanted his audiences to adopt a critical perspective in order to recognise social injustice and exploitation and to be moved to go forth from the theatre and effect change in the world outside. For this purpose, Brecht employed the use of techniques that remind the spectator that the play is a representation of reality and not reality itself. By highlighting the constructed nature of the theatrical event, Brecht hoped to communicate that the audience's reality was equally constructed and, as such, was changeable."
The Line "Die Liebenden"
By Bertolt Brecht
See those cranes in a big turn!
The clouds that were attached
to them moved with them as they flew
out of one life into another life.
At the same height and with the same haste,
they only seem to both.
So that the crane shares with the cloud
The beautiful sky, which they flee for a short time
So that no one lingers here any longer
and sees no other than the weighing of the
other in the wind, both of which feel
now in flight:
The wind likes them like that to kidnap into nothingness.
If only they do not pass away and stay
so long they can not touch anything for
so long You can drive them from any place
Where rain threatens or shots sound.
So under Sun and Moon's various slices, they
fly away, completely falling apart.
Where are you going? - Nowhere. From whom? - From all.
You ask, how long have they been together?
Recently. - And when will they part? - Soon.
So the love lovers seems a stop.
There was not direct reference to this poem but given the style
and death references I find the connections to be rather confounding, again this is just a hunch that Kojima has been referencing people and works that he loves and this one would make a ton of sense.
