I've been unlucky at posting to this group it the past, but here I go again... I've been curious about where Kate got the phrase "Love and Anger," and while browsing "Parzival" by Wolfram von Eschenbach (the 1980 Penguin edition, translated by A. T. Hatto), I hit upon the following (on page 238): "These glad tidings tell of the True Lover. He is a light that shines through all things, unwavering in His love. Those to whom He shows His love find contentment in it. His wares are of two sorts: He offers the world love and anger. Now ask yourself which helps more...." This is from ca. 1200. Curious, no? ============================================================================== Michael Butler (buckaroo@apple.com)... for another couple months, anyway! "I remember sulking on the sofa / For most of the winter, we were strangers / Just one more, to ease the ache / before the night takes me...." ============================================================================== /
