But of course studying the sources and keeping abreast of the literature is very hard.Michael Lorenzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04248014539227254368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6717274106260594383.post-84362174598155621742013-08-03T14:40:11.682-07:002013-08-03T14:40:11.682-07:00Hahahaa... I can't answer the one about Humpty...Hahahaa... I can't answer the one about Humpty Dumpty! And I have to say the business about Mozart falling puzzled me, too. I want to look into that. The plot thickens when the researchers say he was hurt in "one of his many falls" in 1791. Though I haven't researched this in depth (I'm up to my neck in all this other research) I've loved Mozart my whole life and read a lot about him recreationally, including his letters, and I do not recall reading about one fall, let alone many falls. <br /><br />There is this school of thought -- I always thought without evidence -- that holds that Mozart was a drunk. Maybe the people who say that know something about these falls.<br /><br />Another thing, I do know he rode a horse -- maybe he fell from his horse? But you would think someone would have mentioned that.<br /><br />Tell me if you learn anything and I will say if I do. I am glad I am not the only one concerned on this sunny Saturday about Mozart's skull!Mary Kunz Goldmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02691118577179541037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6717274106260594383.post-46309329458006595142013-08-03T13:49:28.948-07:002013-08-03T13:49:28.948-07:00Did he fall?
