Sallet, Friedrich von, late-Romantic Silesian poet, young deceased (1812-1843). Eigh. Letter m. U. "Your friend F. v. ==References== 11/4 p. Double sheet with address and seal residue. Wroclaw 13.XII.1839. Detailed letter to the writer Ludwig Eichler in Berlin, who had applied for a position as a correspondent at the Wrocław newspaper. Sallet explains Eichler that the editor Dr. Nimbs can't decide anything as long as the real boss, Baron Vaerst, is in Berlin. "... Nimbs knew her very well by the name and said that it would be very desirable for the newspaper to have a correspondent in Berlin who would also be Litterat to receive the news in a proper, enjoyable version. But, of course, it is mainly based on political news, since belletrist correspondence in the newspaper could only occupy a small space ...". He may state whether he has connections of the kind in Berlin, "that you can also obtain political notes, but well understood: only fully guaranteed (already because of the responsibility of the Redaction) from Berlin quickly ... Ferrand will have told you that I am now eagerly engaged in a great poetic work, a 'Laien Evangelium'. Of course, I prefer this to all journal editors, for whom I do not have the least skill ...". Then it becomes clear that his friend's gnat is heaviness. "... But you don't have to be too strict about his long silence. Mücke is a faithful friend, but perhaps the greatest 'progression rath' of his time. One could also call him 'the father of all obstacles'. He keeps circling and can't come to bear. Herein lies the explanation for all his tuna and omitting ... When you come together with Ferrand, Arthur Müller, Gaudy, Leitner, you greet the same most beautiful of me ..." - In Sallet's 1842 published "Laienevangelium", his most successful work, the poet critically deals with Christianity, which in addition to militaryism was one of the most critically judged topics of Sallet. - Folding cracks, partly with transparent paper - Since Sallet was only 31 years old, quite rarely.
