For some reason the 'read in full context' wasn't working, but I don't see how it could explain that. And a quick google search revealed it does apparently relate to a toy-type object, either a sort of malevolent elf-on-the-self or a benevolent spiritual plaything.
What is it that's not working for you?
When I click 'read in full context' I get a google page saying "that's an error".
Makes perfect sense to me.
I actually got:
404. That’s an error.
The requested URL {linky-link stuff} was not found on this server. That’s all we know.
Which I found amusing in the extreme, when coupled with the encouraging advice that this nicely 'explained' things in context, after all.
It does, in a sort of metaphysical kind of sense.
I hasten to add that
Howl and
Finnegan's Wake have also been challenging for yours truly. I'll bet that Gaston understands them both; my, what a guy! I'm feeling intrigued by the notion that a Steiner education could produce such a harmonious, and yet intimidating, specimen of humanity.
In unrelated news, I also have to wonder what sort of Steiner type Ted Nugent is. Probably a Choleric. Must ponder this further.
