Abstract

When John Neubauer became my teacher at the University of Pittsburgh in 1979, lessons for life abounded everywhere – “everything was a seedling,” (HKA II: 563) as Novalis had once noted. Recalling some of these lessons 25 years later brings back fond memories of a period of challenge and growth.
