Wenn ich dein Spiegel wär / Dann würdest du dich in mir sehn / Dann fiel's dir nicht so schwer / Was ich nicht sage, zu verstehn / Bis du dich umdrehst / Weil du dich zu gut in mir erkennst

i don't know why i agreed to include andrée in my thesis. somehow the hyperfixation does not extend to men who went polar exploring in anything but a boat.

Shores of the Polar Sea (1878)
“This is a sketch, from the floes alongside the ship, of an unusually distinct Paraselena that appeared on 11th December, 1875. The haloes and cross round the moon are caused by the passage of her light through a tissue of impalpably minute needle-like crystals of ice slowly falling through the atmosphere. . . . In summer the sun was often surrounded by a similar meteor, but intensely dazzling, and tinted with colors like an outside rainbow.”
Shores of the polar sea : a narrative of the Arctic expedition of 1875-6
“The sketch is from amongst Floebergs to seaward of the ship. The sides of the berg in the centre have been worn into columns and alcoves by the surface floods of some former summer. . . Snow-drifts fill up all the gorges and ravines amongst the bergs, and are in some places so hardened by wind and infiltration of sea-water, that tidal motion cracks and fissures them, especially round the grounded bergs.”
