Dear friend! * (Postmark: 13th September, 1902.) I would have had to deal Dr. S. a lie or an insult yesterday, if I had remained with you. I kiss you. Dear friend! * Otto W. 23rd September, 1902. Read “Peer Gynt” on a train, at least for the first time: on account of its effect, which I believe you will think back on for a long time. Here will you also find pain and despair. And practically all forces in and outside of Man united upon one stage. And once you have read it, then you should take the state examination. My warmest regards. Dear friend! R. informed me yesterday of everything. * Otto W. (Postmark 27th September 1902.) I don’t believe it will go as far as that, but will remain as a threat. 53 53 At that time my family wanted me, as a 20 year old, to forgo either the association with O. W. or with the house. [Arthur Gerber] 84
But if it does, I expect of you that you, to begin with at least, will come to live with me and also share whatever else with me. I tell you, I regard this as a matter of course. Please, write to me at once! Do you need money? * O. 4th October, 1902. Thank you for your letter. You would also surely have wanted a Bayreuth for the two operas. 54 It is nevertheless a scandal. Even Mignon and Carmen become so laboured. I find the thought of an essay “On the gait of man” very pleasing, but you should write it as soon as there is time and inclination. My feeling for what the gait of a man says is comparatively weak, much less expressed than with you, or than with my, for example, physiognomic impressions. It will also be useful to you with the Philistines if you handle such a serious subject, “although . . .”. In the end I would have had enough to do with the minutes of “Propria”. * 11th October, 1902 . . . . I have by no means rejected the “gait”, I approve of it very much, that you lay such great worth on it, and I am myself very interested for your results. I can only infer, from the movements of the shoulders and hands, perhaps something of the attitude; the legs themselves hardly anything, rather more the acoustic image of the gait . . . 54 Mascagni’s “Cavalleria rusticana” and Leoncavallos “Bajazzo”. [Arthur Gerber] * 85
