Our teacher spoke about a guy called Daniil Harms in school, but which one is correct name, Daniil Kharms or Daniil Harms? I found both names from Google, Kharms was slightly more popular. -- Panu 06:50, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)

It's just a matter of transliteration from Russian. Cyrillic "Х" (as in Хармс) is usually transliterated as "kh." Same is with Khrushchev (spelled Хрущёв in Russian) and Chekhov (Чехов), etc. As it's a common practice to use "kh" instead of "h," we could say it's more "correct." --Dejan Cabrilo 07:29, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Okay, so redirect from Daniil Harms to this article is fine. -- Panu 07:40, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I redirected here "Danil Kharms" with the following text:

Danil Kharms (1905 - 1942) was a Russian author. Kharms was a part of the Leningrad avantgarde. He is now considered to be among the most prominent representatives of Russian Absurdism. He died in prison in 1942.

Transliteration

True, according to the common transliteration rules, his last name should be Kharms, yet it's known that he composed that word from a foreign language. In my opinion, Harms would be more accurate, emphasizing therefore the (pseudo-)foreign origin of the name. Klaus Bertow 22:39, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

Multiple Names

Kharms actually had a weird obsession with using the same name more than once. He published under a number of variations: Kharms, Harms, Charms, Charms-Dandy and a long list of others. Polycarp-kusch 04:25, 27 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Monument

I deleted the part about Charms' monument in St. Peterburg. I found a picture of it here and as far as I can tell, it does not resemble a vulva at all. mz (talk) 13:33, 28 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

This is "vulva" :) 95.25.27.206 (talk) 14:42, 4 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

"As for English translations—oddly, many have appeared of late in American literary journals"

Why is it odd? 173.70.172.146 (talk) 17:29, 11 October 2009 (UTC)ADVENTReply

Bibliogaphy

I read that Ian Frazier translated Stories from Kharms. Therefore I looked for a bibliography in this article, but I do not see anything like this here. --13Peewit (talk) 09:29, 31 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
