I have found some neat non-Pöllnitz related things as well, but let me add that Pöllnitz the go to guy for anecdotes also explains why Fritz later, when Pöllnitz is back in Berlin, writes "if I say cuckold, will you get the hint?" re: Marwitz. I was wondering how he knew the Margrave was cheating on Wilhelmine with her, since Wilhelmine doesn't say and it's not the kind of thing which Marwitz herself would have written to her father. But Pöllnitz, author of "La Saxe Galante", would totally have deduced who was sleeping with whom on that court and would have told Fritz upon his return.
