The Forger's Message Lives On
The world-view expressed in the forged letter has become permanently installed
in the thoughts of Western intellectuals in such a way that even those
who know it to be a forgery go on believing its underlying ideology. Goethe,
Pushkin, Heidegger and Peter Schaefer are only some of those taken in
by this forgery. Here, perpetuating the myth, are a university-level textbook
and two well-received popular books on music and science.
