[MD] Bitterkeit und Besskeiten

[118]

Hi Marsha,
I am trying to remember which interpretations I got from the library
last year.  I did read that he changed his approach later on and
treated language more like painting (my analogy).  That is, he broke
it up into specific works of art.

I am curious what you find that relates to MoQ.

 Cheers
Mark
