Diary Entry of June 8, 1877
The diarist resumed copying Parsifal and teaching the children, keeping busy with work and family routine. There were also reflective excursions, including a visit to a grave and a long walk, while reading and literary exchange gave the day an intellectual tone.
Friday, June 8:
I start copying out Parsifal and resume lessons with the children. Drive to the tomb of Herr von Stein; walk in the Schweizer Valley, three hours on foot.
I read my mother’s Souvenirs. R. reads Rémusat’s Abelard on my recommendation and finds it very enjoyable.
