            <p>Having intend<del rend="ow">ing</del>ed to write to you last evening, i will do that
               just now. I have a lovely view into the garden, which looks now very pretty. But the
               violets are all dead now... First of all many thanks for your letter, I was so glad to
               get it, and to hear that you like staying in <rs ref="#tillich_place_id__37" type="place">Berlin</rs> so much. <pb n="2"/> There are many people and things,
               that miss you very much here in <rs ref="#tillich_place_id__549" type="place">Nauen</rs>. At first <q>Focki</q> and <q>Roland</q>.<note type="ea">Höchstwahrscheinlich handelt es sich bei den beiden hier genannten Individuen um Haustiere.</note>
 During the absence of Superintendents <q>Roland</q> was lying all day long in the sun in the yard. I am quite sure he felt very lonely. – Then <rs ref="#tillich_person_id__2128" type="person">Fräulein Zschorsch</rs> and I. The
               other day we had a nice drive in the carriage via Forsthaus – <rs ref="#tillich_place_id__600" type="place">Bredow</rs> –, and we <pb n="3"/> were
               talking of you. <rs ref="#tillich_person_id__2128" type="person">Fräulein
                  Zschorsch</rs> too is now very unhappy, she told me that there were many questions
               she would like to ask you. She intended to come to me and to write, but I know <del rend="s">that</del> she does not dare. Is she not a little silly? Perhaps she
               could meet you once in <rs ref="#tillich_place_id__37" type="place">Berlin</rs>? I
               wish to have the two sermons; you would give <pb n="4"/> them to her, would'nt you?
               It is a pity to say, but I can't come in some time! My aunt feels much better now, to-day she will go for the first time into the garden, but you see, to-morrow is the birthday of <rs type="person" ref="#tillich_person_id__3170">Onkel Troll</rs> and we shall go to dinner there at
               3 o'clock. On Friday I shall probably go to <rs ref="#tillich_place_id__602" type="place">Havelberg</rs>, it is the birthday of my sister. Now <rs type="person" ref="#tillich_person_id__3173">Tante Berta</rs> thinks it is <pb n="5"/> too much
               pleasure for me! – Last Sunday I had the first <q>Children's Service</q>. I have 9 girls
               to teach, and I think it is very nice. The other day I called at <rs type="person" ref="#tillich_person_id__3171">Schwester Meta</rs> and asked her to come to my <rs type="person" ref="#tillich_person_id__3173">aunt</rs> in order to get me for the
               <q>Old-women-meeting</q>. She promised to do so, and probably she is coming this
               afternoon. I am a <pb n="6"/> little anxious about it. Besides she gave me 3 adresses
               of old people to go to read something to them. I shall go next week to them. But when
               my aunt does not like me to go? Am I not very weak? Anyhow I shall do what you
               have told me, and I hope to feel a little more satisfied. – Is that not a very long
                  <pb n="7"/> letter? I must finish now. Let me soon have some few lines again! </p>

                     <p>Paul Tillich (20. August 1886 – 22. Oktober 1965) war ein deutscher evangelischer Theologe und Religionsphilosoph. Nach seiner Tätigkeit als Feldprediger im Ersten Weltkrieg lehrte er an verschiedenen Universitäten in Deutschland, bis er 1933 emigrieren musste und in den USA wirkte, unter anderem in New York, Harvard und Chicago. Tillich entwickelte eine Theologie der Kultur und verstand Religion als das, „was uns unbedingt angeht“. In seiner „Systematic Theology“ formulierte er die Methode der Korrelation und deutete Gott als „Macht des Seins“. Seine Arbeiten verbinden Theologie, Philosophie und Existenzdenken und hatten großen Einfluss auf das religiöse Denken der Moderne.</p>
