Summary

Dankt für M.’s Brief, einen der schönsten, den er je bekommen hat. Weiß es zu schätzen, dass M. in seiner Arbeit nicht das kalte Produkt einer künstlerischen Arroganz sieht, sondern »an expression of art in which social warmth and the urge to help and advise people are not entirely lacking, – even if the assistance through literature must always remain indirect and purely spiritual«.
