F.W.'s thesis, leading to the above conclusion, is based on a number of principal arguments and a few secondary ones as props. It should be mentioned that most of these arguments have been 'aired' by various writers since the beginning of the 19th century, but were never taken seriously by Polan scholars.33692 bytes608 bytes355 bytes608 bytes355 bytestext/htmlapplication/octet-streamapplication/octet-streamapplication/octet-streamapplication/octet-streamen-AUMarco Polobook reviewF.
