  19. Probably not, since, as Prof. Wolfgang Haase, the editor of this journal, advises me, it is a common Swabian dialect-form of the name of the city, playfully used by Schmidt shortly after a visit there.

  20. Never cited is Friedrich von der Leyen, “Erich Schmidt” in:Schulpforte und das deutsche Geistesleben, edited by Hans Gehrig (Darmstadt 1943) 131–135. Schmidt began his studies as a classicist but was won for Germanistik by Wilhelm Scherer. Cf.Wilhelm Scherer—Erich Schmidt: Briefwechsel, mit einer Bibliographie der Schriften von Erich Schmidt, hrsg. von Werner Richter u. Eberhard Lämmert (Berlin (1963).

  21. Prof. Haase notes: The phrase is certainly not of ancient origin. It occurs for the first time as a motto to a Roman painting by Guercino from the years between 1621 and 1623, for whom, according to the contemporary author Giovanni Bellori, it was “invented” by his patron the humanistically educated Jesuit poet Giulio Rospigliosi, later (1667–69) Pope Clement IX. This and the meaning of the phrase in its described context were clarified by Erwin Panofsky in the article “Et in Arcadia ego: On the Conception of Transience in Poussin and Watteau,” in: R. Klibansky & H. J. Paton (eds.),Philosophy and History. Essays Presented to Ernst Cassirer (Oxford 1936) 223–54, revised under the title “Et in Arcadia ego: Poussin and the Elgaic Tradition,” in Panofsky,Meaning in the visual Arts (Barden Cilty, N.Y. 1955, repr. Chicago 1982) 295–320, here 304ff.
