The Hindenburg The Suggested Elements For those directly affected by the rise of the Nazis, as well as others opposed to their existence, the suggested (perceived) elements may represent a higher power (spiritual or karma) as the author of the event in which the explosive destruction of a piece of Nazi engineering pride represents a visual symbol of the demise of Hitler and his 3rd Reich. Additionally, the destruction of the Hindenburg could be perceived as a visual metaphor, such as a paper tiger where the perception of Nazi engineering superiority is explosively revealed for the illusion that it was. Continuing on with perceived authors and messaging, for those that believe that Späh was a saboteur, in a naturally occurring event, the author is really the circumstances of the situation and all that led up to it, but in this case, the suggested (perceived) elements share the same function and purpose as if Späh had actually done it. In this scenario, the death of the author effect deals a double whammy to the sabotage angle as both the author and message are misidentified, because Späh did not send any messages of resistance to society, because he was not the author of the explosion. |
