With some colleges limiting their liberal arts curriculum, I fear fewer and fewer graduates will appreciate Proust’s extraordinary references…in art, music, philosophy, literature, history, etc.
How will the average reader understand this sentence fragment?

From Chris Taylor’s
ridiculously comprehensive website; Chris translates #Proust not available in English.
I searched for “Zohar.”

If you know how to navigate Gallica.bnf, you can also see Proust’s handwriting in Cahier 5, NAF 16645, 53v.
