FOOTNOTES:
[82] They have a whole room for winter quarters, of which in summer the windows are merely thrown open.
[83] Such was the general title of the secluded Emeritus, the court preacher, Spener, who resided there, and who was related to the noble old pious Spener, not only on the paternal side, but also on the spiritual.
[84] They had these names as twins.
[85] The grammar seems to require "a still almost maidenly looking woman of seventeen years," but the translator did not dare to think Jean Paul could have meant that, consistently with the ages of the three children, though, as an Oriental, Chariton may have married very young.
[86] The Tartarus with Julienne's father's heart.
[87] Such is the name of that mount which Albano found in the well-known spring night.

[91] It cannot be objected to me, that in fact the scenes of my book have been actually experienced, and that no one would wish to experience any better; for in the representation of fancy reality assumes new charms, charms with which every other faded present magically glimmers through the memory. I appeal here to the sensations of the very characters who figure in Titan, whether they would not in my book—in case they should ever light upon it—find in the pictured scenes, which, however, are their own, a higher enchantment, which has gone from the real, and which, to be sure, might produce such an effect—but altogether illusorily—that my characters could wish to live their own life.
