Scope and content

McGuire informs that the typescript of the second volume of Sound and Symbol [Man the Musician] has gone into production. He has decided that they will not use Erich von Kahler’s article from Merkur [“Was ist Musik? Zum Lebenswerk Viktor Zuckerkandl,” see letters of March 25, 1971, and April 5, 1971] as a preface to the book. He shares that Kahler died the previous summer [June 28, 1970] and they cannot finance a translation of his article. McGuire then gives Ritsema instructions on how to properly acknowledge the contributors to translations of three of Plato’s Dialogues facilitated by Princeton University Press, which Ritsema intends to quote on the program [unspecified, likely for the 1971 conference].
