I just checked with wiki, and yes, Achim von Arnim died in 1831 (Bettina would live on until the 1850s), which means that he's probably the "noble deceased" Burchardt is talking about in a book printed in 1833. And I would furtherly speculate that Fredersdorff suddenly being the son of a respectable Franconian merchant instead of a Pomeranian town piper is entirely to the von Arnim family wanting to beef up their sort-of-relations social ancestry.
This makes total sense, and I appreciate your telling us that background :D
*blinks* not in chronological order?! That sounds... confusing.
for he who does loses the male power of love for the rest of his life.
Definitely suggestive, at the very least! (Though I could also see it all being teasing and innuendo rather than actually sexual, as mildred has talked about.)
