Suhm apparently wrote a very long letter explaining in detail why he was so busy, which the 1787 editor says he cut out (in general, he says he cuts out a lot whenever Suhm starts to get boring), and since Trier has nothing that the 1787 translation doesn't, apparently Preuss silently cut too!
Me: Wait, you mean he got cut whenever he started getting chatty??
Suhm joins the ranks of people who can't do vivid pen portraits when he depicts Duke Anton Ulrich, whom he portrays in generically positive terms.
Me: ...oh, okay, maybe he really was just boring.
Oh! [personal profile] cahn, Anton Ulrich is...
OH THAT GUY. FRIIIIIITZ (and even more, Elizaveta! And Catherine! :((((((((((((((( )
That's interesting that he would have been for the Silesian invasion!
ugh, I am not going to be able to get to the threesome tonight, much less all the other amazing stuff salon has produced this week, but, wow.
