Pseudo-Mahler (?) on tradition as the transmission of a fire or flame, not ashes

     See Gerald Krieghofer, Zitatforschung, 10 June 2017; "Irrwege einer Metapher," Weiner Zeitung, 10 June 2017.  Krieghofer attributes (the earliest version of) this to the Socialist Jean Jaurès.  I have not looked again since 2019.
