re: Fritz visiting Wilhelmine's burial site: I don't know.
Okay, thanks. Reason I ask: I keep seeing people get so worked up about how Fritz dealt with Katte's death, including but not limited to not visiting his grave. And it just makes me angry how common it is for people to decide that if other people don't react to trauma according to the One True Way they've come up with, the traumatized person is doing it wrong. (Much worse example that my wife ran into in a documentary recently: insisting your daughter is lying about sexual assault, because when *you* were raped, *you* were crying and hysterical, but *she's* numb and in shock. SMH.)
Anyway, Wust is obviously much closer to Berlin than Bayreuth, and under his purview, but I was just wondering if maybe he simply preferred commissioning temples and putting up statues at Sanssouci to visiting burial sites, maybe that was much more therapeutic. But even if you DID go all the way to Bayreuth and avoided Wust because wow the survivor's guilt, that's STILL OK, Fritz. <3
