Dear Nathaniel, Thank you for your telephone call. I've just finished listening to and following the score of four Bach cantatas. As usual, the music has left me a bit disoriented, not ready to compose a letter, but I want to get these URL's off to you. Please feel under no obligation to promote my writing to your German professor or to anyone else. Remember all art is politics; use my texts, if at all, only to advance your own causes. My first novel, Die Andere, I wrote about 20 years ago. I e-mailed Chapter 7 of that text to a website in Berlin many years ago, and from there it was picked up by http://www.logoslibrary.eu/document.php?document_id=22202&code_language=DE and by http://ebooks.gutenberg.us/wordtheque/de/AAAASP.TXT Those texts have the advantage that the editors substituted the dotted Umlaute which I don't have on my keyboard for the diphthongs ae, oe and ue, as well as the ligature sz, which also has not been available to me. On my website, Chapter 7, in German is available at: http://home.earthlink.net/~ernstmeyer/andere/K07.TXT and in English at: http://home.earthlink.net/~ernstmeyer/andere/E07.html Possibly also of interest, the opening chapter of my second novel "Die Freunde", http://home.earthlink.net/~ernstmeyer/freunde/f001.html and an English translation of this chapter: http://home.earthlink.net/~ernstmeyer/freunde/appendix.html http://home.earthlink.net/~ernstmeyer/andere/K01.TXT http://home.earthlink.net/~ernstmeyer/andere/K43.TXT
