Footnotes1 The Austrian poet Anton Wildgans (1881–1932) regularly went on holiday in Mönichkirchen from 1909. The local population gave him the idea and basis for his epic Kirbisch oder Der Gendarm, die Schande und das Glück (1927), which was largely written in the village. 2 In its final form, the chapter on "Diminution" in Part III, section 3 ("Specific Foreground Events") is followed by four more chapters; these in turn are followed by two more sections on "Meter and Rhythm" and "Form." |
