DescriptionHere we see Mama Katzenjammer with her two darlings, Hans and Frits. Dirks wanted his readers to really embrace the German aspect of The Katzenjammer Kids, therefore he wrote the dialog phonetically to show the accent that Hans and Fritz would have used. As a German himself, this was easy for him to do. All the “W”’s became “V”s, for example. In addition, he added in some comic dialect and slang terms, such as “dumbkopf.” It may have been stereotyping, but the comic strip’s fans didn’t seem offended. The public adorned The Katzenjammer Kids and looked forward to reading about their next escapades each week. -- Publisbed by SOL BLOOM, ChicagoSocial/Sharing |
