This outline, translated from the original German, appears on the first page of a list of books in Max Stern's library (the list is in the Dominion Gallery Archives, National Gallery, Ottawa). It was probably made before the books were packed in preparation for Stern's departure from Germany in 1937. The classification scheme was probably invented by Stern. (SEE ALSO Max Stern's Library). |
