Cultural Influence

In 2003, Italian satirist Daniele Luttazzi produced the short story Stanotte e per sempre (Eng.: Tonight and forever), which transposed Krassner's elements in the Italian political context.

Famous quotes containing the words cultural and/or influence:

    All cultural change reduces itself to a difference of categories. All revolutions, whether in the sciences or world history, occur merely because spirit has changed its categories in order to understand and examine what belongs to it, in order to possess and grasp itself in a truer, deeper, more intimate and unified manner.
    Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)

    Life is made too easy. Mankind’s moral fibre is giving way under the softening influence of luxury.
    Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
