[Juenger-list] EJ, Die Schere #67: Note

[rcalvom@ctv.es (rcalvom@ctv.es)]

Dear members

> r how do our Spanish friends like that first sentence of #67 when they
> look at their Siglo d'oro?

As Ej points in Eumeswill (Vigo) economic exits do not affect cities 
like Firenze or Venezia, or Spain in the Siglo de Oro, or any other 
countries. If the ruling classes are able to transmutating (sic) gold 
into art works, economic exits are always welcome (artistically 
speaking). That sentence refers mostly, as Rene has well pointed, 
to such cultures that are already trivializated ( deacying cultures, 
democracies of masses, etc). Nivelation planishes the landscape 
(first flattening), economic triumphs increases it (second flattening) 
by accelerating the objects of contemplation. For instance, look at 
the turists at the Louvre or the Prado museums, can anyone 
sumerged in the deeps of an artwork at such speed?.

Best regards
