Footnotes

1 This item is taken from Series B (Schenker's drafts), p. 1. It is entirely undated: all that can be said is that it appears before the first item dated to 1898, on Series B, p. 2 (item 3: Gerhard Hauptmann). Its placement after May 31, 1897 links it to the item of that date by virtue of their shared opposition to "modern" music ‒ a theme that will recur constantly throughout his diaries.
