Einzelstellenerläuterung
-
"… "Auden proceeds to give the correct pronunciation and accentuation of the names of the characters of The Bassarids, as well as the mountain on which some of the action takes place.
-
"… accent in Autonoe the stronger.)"The brackets indicate that the accents refer to both ’Autonoe’ and ’Beroe’.
-
"… do hope this is true."Henze actually went to Berlin in the winter of 1964-1965, on a Ford Foundation grant that Ingeborg Bachmann also won that same year. Henze writes in his Autobiography, pp. 190-191, that quite coincidentally the three found themselves living for a time in the Grunewald, in Berlin.
