  1. Dietzsch, "Kant, die Juden und das akademische Bügerrecht," pp. i2^i.

  2. But see Stark, "Wo lehrte Kant?", p. 94. Stark points out that Herz attended
    Kant's lectures "nachweislich" only in the summer of 1768. But nothing speaks
    against him having attended the lectures in the winter semester of 1766—7.

  3. See Stark, "Wo lehrte Kant?", p. 94. Johann Friedrich Reichardt made this claim.

  4. See Davies, Marcus Herz, p. 228. Davies believes that these pains were of a some¬
    what psychosomatic nature, having to do with the lack of social acceptance and the
    strains of acculturation (p. 29). But Kant and Kraus had similar problems with¬
    out such strains.

  5. Ak 10, p. 99.1 follow the translation of Davies, Marcus Herz, p. 19.

  6. Davies, Marcus Herz, p. 227.

  7. More about that in the next chapter. Another student of Kant's during this period
    was Karl Gottlieb Fischer (1745—1801), who studied with Kant around 1763. He
    attended Kant's lectures in physical geography and theoretical physics. Later, in
    1774, he went to Kant's lectures again with his charge Karl Ludwig Alexander zu
    Dohna. See Stark, "Kant als akademischer Lehrer," pp. 51-70.

  13. Herz, in Berliner Salons, 1780-1871, p. 47.

  14. von Dülmen, The Society of the Enlightenment, p. 93. His entire discussion of "lit¬
    erary friendship circles" (pp. 93-104) is relevant here.

  15. Maker, Kant in Rede und Gespräch, p. 92.

  16. »See Hamann, Briefwechsel, II, p. 405. To Herder on December 27, 1767: "Yester¬
    day I was visited by the master of the mint Goeschen and Magister Kant." In June
    of the same year, Hippel named Goeschen as "the only person" with whom he has
    social relations (see Schneider, Hippel, p. 162).

  17. The offices of Jacobi's business were located at Magistergasse 29, the very street
    Kant lived on during the sixties. See Archenholz, Bürger und Patrizier, p. 302, and
    Stark, "Wo lehrte Kant?", p. 90.

  18. Hamann, Briefwechsel, V, p. 315 (Maker, Kant in Rede und Gespräch, p. 53). Hamann
    did not know Jacobi himself when the arrangement was made.
