peer agreement (net): +4Handlungsbogen Explanation: Just two URL's to back up my intuition: The following definition can be found at http://www.midwinter.de/lurk/help.html: arc: Eine Handlung, die über eine Episode hinausgeht. Gewöhnlich wird damit der gesamte 5-jährige Handlungsbogen von Babylon 5 gemeint. So etwas wird arc [dt: Bogen] genannt, da sich die Struktur der Geschichte immer weiter aufbaut, bis sie den höchsten Punkt erreicht hat, um dann wieder in eine Ruhephase überzugehen. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-03-03 17:09:25 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Generally, I tend to disagree on not translating arc, but I\'m not at home in the film/TV industry, so you might get away with it. For a \"plain\" audience, I doubt Arc is commonly understood. However, Pschmitt made a very good point with \"Entwicklung\". I\'d probably use Handlungsbogen in the first sentence, and add a little to the second: Die Story wird über eine Reihe von Episoden fortgeführt, in denen sich die Person entwickelt. As for Charakter vs. character, \"Charakter\" does not refer to person. Reference: http://www.midwinter.de/lurk/help.html Reference: http://hammer.prohosting.com/~trekhp/fc_main.htm |
