Dear Schober,
Franz Schubert, 21 September 1824 letter to Franz von Schober
I hear you are not happy and have to sleep off the frenzies of your despair… Although this makes me extraordinarily sad, it does not surprise me in the least, since such is the lot of almost every sensible person in this miserable world.
In 200 years, how much of the essence of human experience has really changed?
Today’s mood has been brought to you by Austrian Romantic composer of lieder and other works, Franz Schubert (1797-1828).
Fictitiously Yours
