Scope and content

Fröbe-Kapteyn approves of Zuckerkandl’s title for the 1960 lecture [unspecified, likely “Die Tongestalt”]. Zuckerkandl asks to have his lecture placed somewhere in the middle of the conference so he has an opportunity to absorb the atmosphere and the ideas of the other lecturers. He considers this important to the development of his own work.
