Epigraphy* Parable
Epigraph by George Steiner —
"There is an Hassidic parable which tells us that God created man
so that man might tell stories. This telling of stories is, according
to Lévi-Strauss, the very condition of our being. The alternative
would be total inertia or the eclipse of reason. The mediative,
ordering capacity of myths, their ability to 'encode' — another
Lévi-Strauss word — to give coherent expression to reality, points
to a profound harmonic accord between the inner logic of the brain
and the structure of the external world."
— "Nostalgia for the Absolute," CBC Massey Lectures, Toronto, 1974
