Life and knowledge break apart. The age of books is over. The age of obscenity begins. Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world. The barbar­ ians rise from the catacombs. Ancient authori­ ties dissolve. Science and technology turn sour. Political reason decays. All is absurd. But it is a remarkable age, too. Never have there been so many books, paintings, so much music. An explosion of knowledge and edu­ cation occurs. Poetry is read to huge audiences. Incredible feats of the intellect abound: Witt­ genstein, Sartre, Toynbee, Russell, Levi-Strauss, Father Teilhard, the marvels of science and tech­ nology. There is a spiritual ferment, an up­ rising of youth. New frontiers of the mind are opened. Exciting syncretisms take place. New media appear for the arts and for knowledge. But the very superabundance of achieve­ ments and novelties, pouring in as never before on the individual exposed to them, staggers the brain. And tremendous changes have clearly been underway. Apocalyptic feelings therefore abound.
