Tautenburg, Monday June 26, 1882: Letter to Lou von Salomé
My dear Friend,
A half-hour from Fortress Thorn, where the elderly Goethe enjoyed his solitude in the midst of lovely forests, lies Tautenburg. Here my good sister has arranged an idyllic little nest that is to enfold me this summer. Yesterday I took possession of it. Tomorrow my sister will depart and I shall be alone. Yet we've agreed to something that perhaps will occasion her return. Granted, that is, that you have no better way to spend the month of August and would find it fitting and meet to live with me here in the woods; in that case my sister would conduct you hither from Bayreuth and live with you here (for example, in the house of the local pastor, where she is now staying: the community has a good selection of lovely and inexpensive lodgings). My sister, whom you may ask Rée about, would need a great deal of solitude during this period in order to brood on her little novella-egg. She is mightily pleased by the thought of being in your and my proximity.— So! And now, let us be upright “unto death"! My dear friend! I am committed to nothing here and could quite easily alter my plans in case you have other plans. And if I am not to be together with you, then simply tell me so—and you don't even need to give any reasons! I trust you implicitly: but you know that.—
If we get along well together, then so will our states of health, and in some secret way this visit will do us both good. Prior to this, I've never thought that you might “read aloud and write” for me; but what I very much wish to be permitted to be is your teacher. Finally, to tell the whole truth: I am now seeking the human beings who could be my inheritors; I bear about me some things that are not to be read in my books—and for these things I am searching for the finest, most fertile soil.
You see my selfishness!—
Every time I think on the threats to your health and your very life, as I do again and again, my soul is filled with tenderness; I don't know if anything else could bring me so quickly to your side.— And then I’m ever so happy to know that you have Rée, and not only me, as a friend. It is a genuine pleasure for me to think of walks and talks together with the two of you.—
The Grunewald was far too sunny for my eyes, anyway.
My address is: Tautenburg near Dornburg, Thüringen.
Yours faithfully,
Friend Nietzsche. |
