Cumputers and the Internut are all about the Syntactic Monoids

Macrobius

Megaphoron



To explicate: 'Lex and Yacc' are what are known in the Classical Trivium as the second and third canons of the 5 canons of Rhetoric. 'Style and Sytax' = choice of words, and how to order them properly. In Law, this is called 'construction' (Strict Construction being a thing in Constitutional Law -- the Constitution is all about the Yak)

Start of same thread:



Or, if you like 'The Difference between Guenon and Evola, as of the Second, Silver, Age'. Bronze Age I'm not an expert in so YMMV.

Guenon is the Way of Contemplation, and Evola, of Kingly Prudence.


We, of course, are presently in the Sixth Age: https://www.tertullian.org/fathers/isidore_chronicon_01_trans.htm


Now, about Heraclius etc ... @YoungRoman

120. Heraclius has completed five years of his imperial rule. At the beginning, the Slavs took Greece from the Romans; the Persians took Syria, Egypt, and many provinces. Also in Spain, Sisebut, king of the Goths, took certain cities from the same Roman "militia" and converted the Jews subject to his kingdom to the faith of Christ.

121. 5,814 years have passed from the beginning of the world to the present era 654 [616 AD], that is, to the fifth year of the imperium of Heraclius and the fourth of the most glorious prince Sisebut.

122. The time remaining for the world cannot be ascertained by human investigation. Our Lord Jesus Christ forestalled every question about this matter when he said: "It is not for you to know times or the moment which the Father has fixed by his own authority." And elsewhere: "But of that day," he said, "and that hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but the Father only." Each one, then, should think about his own passing, as holy scripture says: "In all works, be mindful of the most recent." When, therefore, any one passes away that moment is the end of his world.

All HAIL to the fifth year of the imperium of Heraclius and the fourth of the most glorious prince Sisebut.
