AESTHETICS
( the reality knew through our senses )

PSYCHOSOPHY
( psychology applied to philosophy )

META-POLITICS*
(  beyond the economic ideology of mean bourgeois partyism  )

Re-vealing. Is it surprising that to unveil it is necessary to re-veal*?   * (in italian: s-vela = un-veil; ri-vela = re-veal = re-veil)

Ego and “God”. How can we know the whole without becoming it? EgoD.

Being and becoming. Can man, the biproduct of a cosmic cloud, be something more substancial than the cloud itself?

Apparent truth. Just as the object is an apparition, so is the knowledge appearing from it.

On divinity. What can be more divine* than the stars and the sun? Yet they too become, are born and will pass.  * (from latin=shining)

Philosophical flaws. Any philosophy that is not able to explain the most insignificant or repellent things in life, too, is in itself a trick.

Paradoxical truth. The paradox is paradoxical only for the old truth that it replaces. 

The paradox. "The knowledge that we do not know". The only hypothetical knowledge granted to Man.

On participation. The whole is one, yet each participates in it in his own way.

Final revelations. Once he has unveiled all the paradoxical mysteries of the Cosmos, Man will reveal the essence of his own mysterious fate.

Scientific errors. The error of science is not so much in the laws discovered, as in the lack of direction of those who apply them: in their own failure to see the whole in each of its own parts.

Points of view. Subjectivity is not so much an error as an inferior point of view.

Spectroscopy of knowledge. Modern astronomy is undoubtedly glaring proof: knowledge is light, and from the study of it knowledge comes to us.

Hegelianism's v.c. "... and just thinking about his own thought ..." a dog began one day chasing his own tail. (v.c. = vicious circle)

Transcendental aesthetics. From the magic of astrology to the science of astronomy: man has read, and still reads the cosmos, looking to unlock the mystery of his own pre-scribed fate. 

Retroactivity. If the law of creation did not re-create itself, could we none the less call it by that name?

The part and the whole. Each part, by realizing its own essence, plays its own part in realizing the whole.

Multiverse. The "beyond" is in fact another cosmic world: upon some lost planet light years away from our trivial place.

Apparent truth. Error does not exist except as partial truth: bound by the physiognomic capacity of the observer.

Mental pathology. The "beyond" and the spirit could only come about in the land of mirages, thus always remaining connected: to thirst, optical illusions, physiological imbalances.

Apparent truth. Appearance and existence are one and the same, for that which exists, appears. Therefore, in so far as it appears, appearance and truth coincide.

Of prophesy. Isn't a prophet someone who, in every field of knowledge, is able with more vision to penetrate the law that governs becoming?

Of becoming. In becoming, being passes from potentiality (potential possibility) to reality by realizing itself in the modes or laws of existence. A game, because it is in playing that potentiality is expressed, its only objective being to "re-create" itself.

Potentiality and actuality. Nought in potentiality is non-being* in actuality.  *(in italian: non-essere = not to be and/or non being)

Transcendental aesthetics. Matter is merely the name chosen by Man for the definition of an aesthetically ordered (transcendental idea) of qualities perceptible to the human senses: the principal mental category of practical life.

Historical perspectives. Time, which Man perceives as being linear in the brief span of time available to him, could very well be circular.

Historical perspectives. Just as curved space seems to Man to be flat, in the same way the cosmic law seems to us, in a short span of time, to be rational, too.

Centering the shapeless. Since the void does not exist: can the universe display any form? That's why its centre is consequently at every point of its own space.

Infinite limits. As it has no beginning and no end, may the circle be the infinite in itself?

Heraclitus’ logic. And what if one day we discover that the solution to existence is precisely the non-solution itself?

Transcendental aesthetics. “Man is the measure of all things”, since our essence is the substance itself “appearing” in reality.

The rules of the game. Just like play is re-creation, thus the paradox (pun) re-creates the aesthetic rule by which the universe one day came into existence.

Heraclitus’ logic. Paradox, law of the “included middle”*, is the coexistential contradictory of becoming nature. *(opposite of Aristotle law of an excluded middle)

Empty abstractions. Just like rain is the shape taken by a storm, but prior to it does not exist, thus space and time are the shapes taken by the universe in action: they are born with it. Emptiness, therefore is the empty horsiness of our mind.

The whole and its own parts. If for the whole everything is good, it is not quite so for each of its own parts.

Meta-physics*. What is metaphysics, if not a transcendental physical aim, the layman’s substitute for the Christian “beyond”?  *(In italian: meta = aim / meta fisica = physical aim / metafisica = metaphysics)

On mysticism of reason*. Truth and knowledge are subjected to the “vital passion”* in that true knowledge, the physiognomic health of the being, is that “heroic furor”* itself.  *(as in Giordano Bruno)

The whole and its own parts. If substance is joining everything within it, essence divides us into its various ways of being.

Physiognomy. Prophecy and divination are the magic form of what at scientific level took on the name of physiognomy.

Empty abstractions. The belief in emptiness is born from the abstraction of special space-place; and just like horsiness does not exist, thus emptiness if it is not a space-time place.

Apparent objectivity. Objective is not so much the impersonal man, as he who has a greater physiognomic capability in recognizing the appearance in the morphology of reality.

Psychosophy. To explain the world by doubling it is to double the difficulties; to exchange the rising tension of life, the idea of our future being, in order not to be in the beyond.

Fantastic universal*. Is saying “Zeus was generated” tantamount as saying that potentiality too is re-created by the very same potentiality in action?  *(as in GB Vico)

Mortal equivalences. As in sleep so in death man returns to the potentiality of the cosmic whole. To then return on waking up to the individual who more or less identifies the cosmic actuality itself.

N-ontology. To derive the existence of God by logic, means to lead to the extreme consequences the virtues of a disputable cognitive tool and therefore not demonstrate his existence but rather only the limits of this human tool.

On the kaleidoscope. About the universe the only true thing we can say is that it forms and transforms in time: transcending itself to its entelechy (its meta-physics in action). An ex-istence* from nothing and return into nothing according to the order of its own time.  *( from latin=coming out, appearing)

Transcendental aesthetics. Substance is the interpretation that we give to reality through the actuation of one of its own ways of being, namely our essence. Essence which by more or less identifying the cosmic actuality itself determines a greater or lesser physiognomic capability in the resonance of the cosmic law.

Optical illusions. What if the cosmic expansion, as in a kaleidoscope, were only an optical illusion of space in evolution (formation-transformation) in time equivalent to it?

Transcendental aesthetics. Substance (1) in actuality (2), if considered from the point of view of extension is space (astronomy), time if considered from the point of view of becoming being: its finite but not final Cosmological Entelechy. (1) potentiality - structural potentiality; 2) space-time energy)

Transcendental aesthetics. That which our senses perceive: color, shape, weight, smell, …materiality, are nothing but qualities of the extension.

On meta-physics. Meta-physics, in order not to become ridiculous, should only serve as a transcendental physical goal; only by overcoming it would potential metaphysics become meta-physics in action.

Transcendental ideas. If daltonism today is an eyesight defect but perhaps was not so in a previous era then, contrary to Aristotle, every thing can be and not be simultaneously.

On nothingness. It is emptiness - the equivocal abstraction of the five human senses - the quintessence of matter in which potentiality appears to the sixth sense.

Space time. Space* becomes (takes form and transforms) in time equivalent to it. *(the universe and everything in it - becomes not in emptiness (abstraction) but in time to which it is equivalent)

Apparent logic. If to describe the aesthetic law of the universe, as already done by Heraclitus, one must use a paradox, perhaps it is because it seems in order: on a small space-time scale more suitable to our senses and intellect from the scale of which both derive and from which life depends; or as a temporary synchronism of disorder.

Free need. The current universe, rather than being the best, is the only world possible: a free product of the intrinsic need of becoming. (The law of becoming is free, it being determined only by the intrinsic creative need of its own nature).

Entelechy. If “matter generates forms”*, then is the Being the maximum and accomplished form of its own existence?  *(as in Giordano Bruno)

Psychosophy. Being is… the mental category of the accomplished status. (Entelechy)

The philosopher’s stone. Philosophical knowledge is to know how to bring together the various scientific laws - complementary physiognomies of the effectual reality - into a unique law of actuation of becoming from its own potential being.

Physiognomy of knowledge. From ancient Upanishads to Confucius, the classical Greece, the Renaissance man, the purpose of knowledge was the same: to define the common substance of things (brahma, Tao, principle, energy) from which everything derives and to which everything returns establishing, through the physiognomic study of reality, the law of its cyclic becoming of which everything is a part (atma, Te, areté-daemon*, virtue).  *(as in Heraclitus)

To conceive. What is usually called emptiness is not nothingness (structural potentiality, potentiality) but rather a space-time abstraction.

Transcendental ideas. Every modes of being of substance in potentiality is as such in-finite and therefore finished by its actuality.

Transcendental ideas. Being in potentiality is existence in actuality, substance and essence of its formal aesthetic law.

Being and becoming. Being and non Being in potential nothingness* are the same thing. Only by coming into existence Being is, inasmuch as it is not anything else. Therefore nothingness becomes inasmuch and by as much as it is but does not exist. *(potential nothingness = to be the non being or being the non being; because in italian to be = to be and/or being)

Made to measure. If up to yesterday the human solid and concrete conception of material substance was valid because it was confirmed by our senses and use, today this is no longer true, due to the sophisticated senses and use of advanced technology.

Kinetic illusions. As in navigation one can still consider the earth as center of the universe, thus in common scientific practice not so much the formation and transformation of space in time but rather its most consequential optical illusion: motion.

Transcendental ideas. Matter is the main apparent quality of the aesthetic actuation of reality, a mental category of practical life joining within it all of the other sensitive qualities.

Primitive physiognomy. Ingenuous infancy of physiognomy, the illogical logic of Aristotelism.

Transcendental ideas. An idea substantially does not exist but as an in-finite* way of being, and therefore requires reality to be able to actuate itself transcendentally. *(not finite, potential)

Existence in action. What other solution should existence have but that to exist?

TO BE CONTINUED 

Transcendental aesthetics. Philosophy, as the world conscious vision and consequently way of life, is in mankind instinctual trend even if called with different names by the ' common man '...and the states-man as well.

Vision v. Re-vision. What is history, when isn' t the past's re-vision, just a " Holywood-like " storyteller's vision? 

Reflex knowledge. Just like the mirror reflects itself through the reflected object, so Man knows himself through the object known.

Heroic furore. The six senses without reason are “non-sense”, reason without them a castle in the air.

Beyond. Often we attribute to the words of a speaker meanings that go ‘beyond’ the significance given them by the speaker himself.

Involution. On the circumference of a circle: he who believes he is going forward is going backward instead.

Decadence. Whatever survives its death becomes a rotting receptacle of flies and disease.

Cheating truth. Does it matter if man' truth is a partial lie? A temporary hypothesis on reality and life? What do we know for sure? Perhaps the hypothetical knowledge that we do not know? And so do we know? Who knows.

Sentimental interpretations. Quite often we consider “altruism” what could very well be the effect of perfect egotism.

Being and digesting. The importance of nutrition on psycho-physical qualities: is sufficiently demonstrated by ants and bees.

Apparent truth. There are various ways of lying, but most people don’t know but the most superficial of them: telling their own subjective truth.

After Socrates. Only by wrongly choosing wrong can Man still choose right.

Free necessity. Not the individual but individuality is the only evolutionary tool of life.

The many and the few. In Man, madness is the rule rationality the exception.

Virtuous types. There are various types of virtue: the Renaissance one that stems from value and the Christian type,  from moral vanity.

New Age. Today's New Age philosophy, the way things are, lacks a charismatic leader's hand to make a clean sweep of all the machinations plotted by cunning quacks or apprentice sorcerers(as once priests were and many still are). Saint Peter's throne is tottering, the reason behind the catholic church bam-boozling us its "di-wine spirit" transubstantiating into sulphurous water, with a mass...ive loss for the Vatican coffers.

On scepticism. If scepticism as an investigative method is the foundation of every sane progress of knowledge then, as a doctrine,  it is its amusing end.

Guilt and sin. Sin is nothing but the psycho-physical discomfort of acting against our own habit: namely custom. Hence the guilt, unassuaged appetition in the satisfaction of an habitual scheme.

Psychosophy. The sensorial unification of the object with the sentient subject: it occurs according to the laws of mental activity, modified by the sensorial data. A-priori laws only to the extent that they were a-posteriori in the phylogenetic interaction of sensitive life on earth.

Altruist’s egotism. Altruism and egotism are not opposites, as they differ only in the object of their love: oneself in others or oneself in oneself. (Amour propre)

Apparent truth. The subjective laws of thinking are objective: to the extent to which the individual elevates himself to individuality.

Rectification of names. Nowadays “good” does not indicate he who is capable but rather he who is harmless.

Self-control. If nothing else, Epictetus demonstrates that “free will” was only the freed slave’s second psychological nature.

Natural responses. Ask a servant a question if you want to receive his servile answer.

On art. Art creates form and informs Man for whom it is created. Truth is, when art becomes art per se, it is because Man – from whom it is derived and for whom it is the purpose – is missing.

Reflex knowledge. Although mental categories are the thinking subject's laws of knowledge, this does not annul their objective truth, since they originate from the interaction of life with the environment that made that life possible.

Passion versus passionateness. If to the heroic-eros (heroic furore) pertains creativity, then to the erotic-eros its mystical ecstasy.

Physiognomy of sin. Guilt and sin are only of those who go against their own habit, namely custom, and in so doing do not satisfy an habitual appetition of a psycho-motorial scheme.

Vice and virtue. Defects in one environment can be the virtues of another one.

On the mysticism of reason. There is passionality, the irrational love that lets reason down (erotic-eros of mystical ecstasy) and passion, the strong pull towards what is beautiful that makes man look deeper into time and space. (heroic furore).

Free need. Whether he wants to or not, Man will always act according to his intrinsic nature.Therefore only he who accepts it will conduct himself in freedom.

On envy. The hope that especially money does not bring happiness is the last hope of envy.

Psychosophy. In how much and for how long it guarantees our life in the knowledge of the object from which it is modified and from which it is derived, consists the objectivity of our law of subjective knowledge.

Psychosophy. The task of Psychosophy (psychology applied to philosophy) is to investigate how much human knowledge owes to our mental categories, born from  phylogenetic interaction of sensitive life on earth.

Vice and virtue. Social virtues: the civilised end of our weakened vices.

Way to say. "To think the unthinkable": a chaste expression for thinking what is thinkable but thought shameful.

Physiological allegory. The physiology of thought is a fact but, without the researcher’s physiognomic interpretation, remains an allegory.

Prejudice of evidence. Often it is not so evident, when something is too evident to us, the evidence that may not be quite so to another.

Shape and content. A spirit without style is a style without spirit.

Thought on thought. Just like many forms of plant parasites and diseases are prettier than the infested plant, so thought could well be the luminous disease of our mind.

Being and becoming. Just because what we draw upon is not as volatile as sand, we expect our deeds* on earth to be eternal. *(opere in italian: deeds and works)

Transcendental evolution. If "Nature does not proceed by bounds", then are all great men sons of their parents?

Paradoxical order. Is not the platypus, temporary synchronisation of disorder, the incarnation of today’s cosmic order?

On business. Too often and too willingly business ends … where the penal code began.

Heroic eros. Was there ever a man, famous in his field, who was not passionate about it?

On judgement. He who condemned the judge, perhaps judged by taking from others the same right to judge?

The many and the few. The line that separates foolhardiness from courage is in most Men indistinguishable.

Ex-ist*. For man, apparent materiality exists to the extent that it interacts with our senses that were shaped from it and from which they are derived. *( from latin: coming out, appearing)

Transcendental ideas. From the distaste for the hominid was born in Man the desire for God and for the beyond.

Appetitions. Like hunger and thirst so is nostalgia: the appetition of memory for a part of us that is no longer.

Being and becoming. Human beings live in reality, without really knowing exactly what it is.

"Support". It is the cross the perch on which ravens croak.

On the Chinese. After getting to know the Chinese, one understands why Confucius wrote his moral maxims.

Psychosophy. The difference in Aristotle’s and Plato’s doctrines does not lie so much in  their systems (effect) as in their own different nature (cause).

Transcendental evolution. As life evolved from the saurians to the dinosaurs, from the humanoid to the human, couldn’t it evolve beyond the human being? Anyhow it remains the only meta-physics* worthy of being ap-proved, up to western cosmosophy. *( In italian: meta = aim / meta fisica = physical aim / metafisica = metaphysics )

Cause and effect. Who was most suited to be the first to philosophise about free will if not a freed slave such as Epictetus?

Geosophy. ... or perhaps the environment influences Man by accentuating his natural physiognomic taste that made a population choose the land in which to live? This anyhow is what Herodotus, thousands of years ago, made Cyrus say.

Heroic furore. Heart and reason or the reason of the heart?

Cultural meta-physics. Since the times of late Romantic Christian trinkets onwards (unlike the Graeco-Roman times and the Renaissance when physical beauty was an integral part and aim of true cultural meta-physics*), for us culture has become synonymous with an infinite and pedantic bore, dead and detached from real life collecting dust in the archives, better represented by the consumptive Christian saint: the Philistine of all time. A bourgeois cliché typical of Aristotelian ethics, where  only non-vulgarity should serve as an aesthetic measure. *( In italian: meta = aim / meta fisica = physical aim / metafisica = metaphysics )

Psychosophy. To explain the world by redoubling it is to redouble the difficulties; to exchange the rising tension of life, the idea of future being, in order not to be "in the beyond".

Overlook. Sometime things are so "obvious" to be obviously overlooked with wrong conclusions and no answer given.

Knowledge of ignorance. Who knows whether what we know - physiognomic viewpoint of cosmic law – is in the best of cases just a more or less true hypothesis related to the observer who more or less identifies the cosmic actuality itself? If so,what  has just been hypothesised, was not  actually just another hypothesis … to the reader, and to our descendants, it is the likely answer.

TO BE CONTINUED

Massgraves' ideology. When bolshevism from a surreal story made history, now and then it generated the most savage and ruthless genocidal systems in mankind memory.

Watching out for justice. …but wasn’t justice created to regulate vengeance? In any case this is what a non-romanced history, and even Plato, is just telling us.

Talib-anus' nightmare. To one day see Allah at-bar ' ordaining a cappuccino '.

The thousand year reign. The vatican, the ancient nest of snakes and antiwestern paparazzi-nger inside Western Civilisation, suddenly changed its mind, on the ottomans in Europe; in this way thinking, against Europe and the Europeans' interests, to boost its sectarian temporal power. Turks will not pass, anyway; but the papal state, in this way, only fulfilled the sense of the old prophetic vision when its thousand year reign of opportunism, pious lies and superstitions, will come to its farcical end.

Euro-villains. To understand towards which kind of Europe we are heading, and what our future will be, click on thisURL:http://europa.eu.int/ and try to send a message not in line with the idea of Europe born from the bureaucratic delirium of the villains who lurk in Brussels and who apparently represent us. By the look of things, our future looks bleak.

Did you know that... the so-called "arabic numerals" were actually invented by  Indo-Europeans?

The end. Every civilization ends … with its final gag.

State castaways. Paraphrasing an old proverb we could say that: “When the State springs a leak, everyone brings grist to their mill”.

Consequences. Often the so-called causes for the fall of a ruling class in power were only consequence and manifestation of its depleted nature.

Cold war. Just as the artillery psycho-physically prepares the battle field, thus every indirect pacific means (propaganda, alliances, subversion, revolts, sanctions, …) prepares the nation subject to attack.

History’s misunderstandings. ...and what should be said about the French counterrevolution passed off as bourgeois… revolution?

Embalming. If the purpose of history is not to strengthen our life, why does it exist? To celebrate our death, perhaps?

Just war. Any war won, just for that, became a just war fought.

Meta-politics*. As life evolved from the saurians to the dinosaurs, from the humanoid to the human, couldn’t it evolve beyond the human being? Anyhow it remains the only meta-physics worthy of being ap-proved,up to western cosmosophy.  *(In italian: meta = aim / meta politica = political aim / metapolitics = beyond politics.)

It’s all over. Only when the individual (not individuality) becomes more important than everything, everything comes to its farcical end.

Means and ends. People are always and only the means, justified by their leaders’ end.

Space-time. What was more creative, the aristocratic nature of the aristo-cratic world or the popular nature of our demo-cratic century?

Political physiognomy. As the physician diagnoses the diseases of the human body from its symptoms, thus the good physiognomist foresees the developments and events of the social body from its premises.

Decadence. Whatever survives its death becomes a rotting receptacle of flies and disease.

Class re-ligion*. As it was in ancient Rome, religions are not so much truer but  more valid, for the formation of the good citizen and valiant soldier.  *(from latin: bounding together)

Social evolution. Aristocracy, for the people from which it derives, is nothing else but its meta-physics* in action.  *(in italian: meta = aim / meta fisica = physical aim / metafisica = metaphysics.)

On the people. People would not be people without the nationalistic aberrations linked to such status.

Cold war. Peace is a cold war, a temporary suspension of armed confrontation, waged with different means.

Layman’s replacements. Just as metaphysics is the layman’s replacement for the Christian hereafter, thus ideology is his unbearable faith.

On disposable containers*. In modern democracies, votes are collected just like the garbage man collects disposable containers.  *(in italian:  voti = votes ; vuoti = disposable containers)

On capitalism. Public capitalism (communism) and private capitalism: the two pseudo-opposite faces of the middle class in power.

Si vis pacem... Peace usually is contrary to any cowardly pacifist hypocrisy.

Generation-related problems. ...but did Luther* or the uterus give birth to Reformation?  *(in italian: Lutero = Luther ; l' utero = the uterus)

'Cosa nostra'. When  government is hiding, those hiding govern.

On feminism. Most probably avant-garde feminism was generated less by the study of natural instinct and more by the pathetic observation of hypercivilized nature.

Ideological excrement. Just as religion is the drug, thus ideology is the excrement of the masses.

Apolitical. The bewilderment of the bourgeois politicker of our times when faced with crude reality… is pathetic but unfortunately true.

Magic mirror. In the Middle and Far East men follow their ever changing truth. Western Civilisation there must follow its interests only, without being deceived by the pitiful hypocrisy of one or the other.

Vices and virtues. The decadence of a civilization perhaps is caused by the same virtues of its greatness: lack of natural selection and therefore the psycho-physical decadence of its ruling class in power.

Human paradoxes. While man strives to improve animal species, he leaves his own to sentiment and chance.

Natural constitutions. Just as political forms are nothing but the mental forms of those who came into power, thus state constitutions are the constitutional virtues of that ruling class in government.

On martyrs. Was the Christian martyr a victim of persecution or was this the result of his own intollerant behavior?

Interaction. Cultural evolution is nothing but the consequence of the evolution of mankind within the evolution of its own universe.

Political types. Some are dreaming the politics of having to be … while others advance that of reality, bringing it into the future.

Legal robbery. When the government is corrupt, taxes are nothing more than legalized theft.

Legal misunderstandings. In legislations, more than the virtues, are mirrored the most widely practiced vices.

On language. The importance of a language goes in step with the importance of the nation in which it is spoken.

On historians. The sheer fact that he was first of all a politician and a strategist elevated Thucydides from simple chronicler to the level of realistic interpreter of events.

Historical maxim. For the so-called historians perhaps this may be a maxim: to interpret politico-military events one has to be up to the level of the events being interpreted.

On government. One cannot "render unto Caesar that which is Caesar’s” without rendering unto him what priests pretend pertain to them.

Occurrences and recurrences. Just as in plants the symptom of their exhaustion is the growth of ever smaller fruits, thus in civilizations is the return of the hominids.

Individual limits. If individual freedom is necessary, it is also true that it must not impinge on the safety of the state that guarantees such freedom. Thus the voluntary coercion which, when needed and for a while, the Romans imposed upon themselves through a dictator.

Social types. That which is considered exceptional in a decayed society, is the normal life of a non-degenerated one.

Evolution. The evolutionary cycle of a civilization: infancy, maturity, old age, death; it is as if to say the macrocycle in which are inserted - and which dominate it - the microcycles of the individuals, cells of such collective organism.

Political economy. Economy turns from a political tool into policy when a nation is no longer led by civility but by civilization. Namely when in the returning barbarism the lower guts return to rule.

On Pharisees. A government of technicians is only a hypocritical screen for the political cowardice it attempts to justify.

On fame. More powerful in its conquest is the fame of a commander than his own weapons.

Democratic intrusiveness. That a society does not adapt to us doesn’t prove anything about its validity or not to another type of man.

On cremlinologists. Isn’t the criminologist the true expert in cremlinology?

Democratic paradoxes. In democratic Athens, weren’t the aristocrats the greatest philosophers, politicians and poets?

Casus belli. The casus belli in general is nothing more than the reason sought to justify, to themselves and to others, the right to wage a war long desired.

Cultural personalities. That individuality is already a cultural fact is demonstrated, if nothing else, by the political and military history of the Greco-Roman civilization.

Evolution. Every development generates its fruit together with its waste.

Capitalist types. If for Renaissance man money was but the means to increase knowledge and civilization, for the capitalist bourgeoisie it is but the goal of his bovine, grab-all and consumeristic pleasure.

Political-military calculations. If you don’t also plan the retreat, you could find yourself with no way out.

Voluntary strategy. To voluntarily do what an adversary would necessarily force us to do, is like opening a door when the other has already charged it: he is thrown off balance and falls into the empty space of his own failed intent.

War history. History is capable of teaching about the material and psychological behavior shown by a population in their past wars.

Evolution versus involution. Rome, Venice and every other civilization ends whith the end of the class that has expressed it, replaced by the one overcome in their past ascending civil evolution.

Popular “esteem”. People are esteemed … only at a three or more meters distance.

Popular gravitations. If ninety nine percent of people must live in a group, it’s because they find their center of gravity not within themselves but only in the mass.

Social "beyond". The middle class, as the pseudo-class it is, is only the limbo in which people decay.

On the Procustes*. As religion thus ideology: they wish to force into a Procustes’ bed the reality which truly overcomes and denies them.  *(in italian: Procuste = Procustes ; locuste = locusts)

Greek history. For ancient Greek historians, historical was only the aristocratic history of those great characters who guided their people to their earthly meta-physics.

Legal illegality. If injustice is the same for everyone, justice instead is proportional.

Parallel examples. Civilization is to civility as erudition is to culture.

The opportunity. Opportunity can be due to chance* or fortune, but in any case it is due to necessity.  *(in italian: caso = chance ; caso = case)

TO BE CONTINUED
