Notes to Pages 223-229 477- Mittenzwei, Preussen nach dem Siebenjährigen Krieg, pp. 135-147. The "partition
of Poland" refers to three territorial divisions of Poland (1772,1793, 1795). It was
initiated by Prussia, Russia, and Austria. Poland's territory was progressively re¬
duced until, afteri795, the state of Poland ceased to exist. - See Stark, "Wo lehrte Kant?", p. 100. But it would be a mistake to think that he
held a grudge. Late in his life, Lampe's wife and her daughter helped Lampe in
his duties. They cleaned Kant's house and took care of other matters. - See Manfred Kuehn, Scottish Common Sense in Germany, ij68-i8oo: A Contri¬
bution to the History of Critical Philosophy, with a Preface by Lewis White Beck
(Kingston/Montreal: McGill-Queen's University Press, 1987), pp. 154-6. For a
good discussion of Herder's views in English, see Robert E. Norton, Herder's
Aesthetics and the European Enlightenment (Ithaca and London: Cornell Univer¬
sity Press, 1991). - Hamann, Briefwechsel, III, p. 82.

- Paul Konschel, Hamanns Gegner, der Kryptokatholik D. Johann August Starck,
Oberhofprediger und Generalsuperintendent von Ostpreußen (Königsberg, 1912),
pp. I4f. Vorländer, by the way, failed even to mention Starck's name. How im¬
portant this man was for all of Germany can be seen from Epstein, The Genesis
of German Conservatism, especially pp. 506-517. - Starck, "Heathen Importations into Christendom," p. 70, translated from Kon¬
schel, Der Kryptokatholik Starck, p. 24. If this sounds vaguely Kantian, this is
no accident. Starck's doctrine belongs just as much to the Enlightenment as
Kant's does. - Hamann, Konxompax (1779), Hierophantische Briefe. Relevant in this context also
is Hippel's Des Ritters von Rosencreuz letzte Willensmeinung der Sprache... See
Joseph Kohnen, "Konxompax und die Kreuz und Querzüge des Ritters A bis Z,"
in Königsberg. Beiträge zu einem besonderen Kapitel der deutschen Geistesgeschichte,
ed. Kohnen, pp. 308-320. Though Hamann's writings against Starck appeared
only much later, their origins date back to this time. - Hamann, Briefwechsel, III, p. 84.
