Contentsthanks him for Warburg's card, but could hardly read it; where did Warburg find the reference to Hephaistos?; [Robert] Eisler is writing an entry 'Zrvan' in Wilhelm Heinrich Roscher's mythological dictionary; the man/woman Hephaistos is Zrvan in Mithraism; the dual sexuality of chronos is Manichaean; on the fire deities of the Magi and Persians; on the birth of the son of Zrvan, born from the cosmic or 'world' egg filled with sperm; on Hermes in women's clothing as a planetary image; on the feminization of stars; thanks the Bibliothek Warburg for its 'great munificence' for printing Eisler's research on Orpheus
