Talk:Tertulia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This would gain context by being a section at salon, especially since it has no currency whatsoever in English, beyond describing this Spanish convention. The derivation from Tertullian? The move into public bars etc is a very recent populist extension. In mid-18th century Italy, such a formalized meeting was a conversazione. Not encyclopedic all on its own like this, unless someone can give us 1000 words on Tertulia... --Wetman 02:50, 3 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Origin of the word[edit]

I found no reference to connect Tertulia with Tertullian. The Real Academia Española provides no etymology for the word (RAE:tertulia). Mariano(t/c) 07:43, 27 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Tertulia = Stammtisch?[edit]

Sorry, but I as a German Spanish Student am not convinced, that a Spanish tertulia can be considered as a German Stammtisch. The tertulia is a intelectual talk about politics, literature, art; the Stammtisch is just politics by drunken people. You may compare it, but it is not the same. 128.176.114.161 (talk) 11:19, 11 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Stammtisch reference[edit]

Tertulia has nothing to do with Stammtisch. Stammtisch are people coming together in bars (public places) discussing (often after a few drinks) how to save the world and what is wrong with politics. Check out the german wikipedia article on Stammtisch, it is good.

Seriously, nothing to do with Stammtisch. If a tertulia aspires to any serious exchange of cultural and/or artistic ideas, forget it. Not at all a Stammtisch.
