I recently made an attempt to read some philosophy. Too complicated for my brain, Iآ´m afraid, although I managed to recognize some similarities between the terminologies of Martin Heidegger and the Hitler apologist Moody, recently evicted from this forum.
Anyway, I begun to ponder the essential dualism of Moorcock cosmology, the war between Law and Chaos. I have never quite understood what principles Law and Chaos symbolize. Now I started to think that possibly they represent the ideologies of Enlightment and Romanticism? Or Rationalism and Irrationalism, or Universalism and Particularism.
I hope Iآ´m not going into over-interpretation...but I have a feeling that I can finally understand what went wrong with the Melnibonأ©ans (self-absorbed romanticists) and Vadhagh (narrow-minded classicists). I hope Mr. Moorcock does not step in now and exclaim "No, no, you got it all wrong..." :D
