Scope and content
McGuire begins with the news that [Paul] Mellon, founder of the Bollingen Foundation, has not died but that rather it is his sister Ailsa [Mellon Bruce] who passed away [August 25, 1969]. The Bollingen Foundation has been succeeded by the Andrew W. Foundation, where McGuire says Mr. Barrett can still be contacted. McGuire mentions that the Eranos 1971 program looks interesting and asks Ritsema for his opinion on using an Erich von Kahler Merkur article [“Was ist Musik? Zum Lebenswerk Viktor Zuckerkandl”] as a preface to the second volume of Sound and Symbol [Man the Musician, see letter of March 25, 1971] and on including a photograph of Zuckerkandl’s bust in the book [see letter of January 25, 1971].
