It would come as a surprise to many observers, but Donald Duck has had a major impact on German popular culture. There’s an excellent (and very clever and well done) example at Duckomenta, which is worth a tour. (Click on “Raum 1,” “Raum 2,” etc.) My friend Dr. Detmar Doering has written an excellent essay on Donaldismus (in German) on the website of the Deutsche Organization nichtkommerzieller Anhaenger des lauteren Donaldismus (D.O.N.A.L.D.) Have fun.
