Today: up at 6. Talked to RR and his brother, including about local art collector Dr. Afr., about Patricia Romance, and about the roof-shingles will be delivered. The translation of the work by Feliks Koneczny is arduous, because he writes in such broad sweeps, that when he refers to specific things, you do not know if he
is talking about the ancient world, the middle ages, or now. He draws very general conclusions (synthesis, as he says) from insignifant facts that may be half-true. Oh
well, I accepted this work and I will finish it.
