History Is The Interpretation Of The Significance

In Order To Begin An Analysis, There Must Already Be A Synthesis Present In The Mind.

A New Culture Can Only Grow Up In The Soil Of A Purged Humanity.

It Is An Evil World. The Fires Of Hatred And Violence Burn Fiercely. Evil Is Powerful, The Devil Covers A Darkened Earth With Hisblack Wings. And Soon The End Of The World Is Expected. But Mankind Does Not Repent, The Church Struggles, And The Preachers And Poets Warn And Lament In Vain.

Life Is Made Too Easy. Mankind's Moral Fibre Is Giving Way Under The Softening Influence Of Luxury.

The Spirit Of Playful Competition Is, As A Social Impulse, Older Than Culture Itself And Pervades All Life Like A Veritable Ferment. Ritual Grew Up In Sacred Play; Poetry Was Born In Play And Nourished On Play; Music And Dancing Were Pure Play....we Have To Conclude, Therefore, That Civilization Is, In Its Earliest Phases, Played. It Does Not Come From Play...it Arises In And As Play, And Never Leaves It.
