The Common sense, The Demiurges, and The Poesies (ποίησις)
1.1 (The common sense and Eco’s medieval) As well known, the people in the middle ages simply could not integrate the metaphysical category of beauty (daemon) with the clear technical classification of art (pratein), which ones, like acts that not correlate to each other (correlation) manifested in the collective sensual taste of their human ideas.
Whether, in the collectives mentality (that we labeled medieval), why have to coincide the beauty with the goodness and with the verity; respectively defined in the popular sense like the attributes of divine existence? Might be this momentum is the mental heritage ( alike a dual thinking) of the last great prophet after Jesus, Mani, who was up and doing in the state of first Sahpur; which momentum could adapted in the spreaded popular (wölkisch) startification easily, like a simple diagram of judge-thinking?
Though the religion filosophical texts of Qumran’s community testify similar imprints like Mani’s heritage, for example the traditional script: the war between the children of light against the children of darkness. But these texts directly not even impinged on such a big effect on later middle ages mentality, like some of Josephus Flavius’s corpus-es, who was up and doing under the umbrella of Vespasianus. Unless if we not value the Qumran’s territory like premise of Jesus Christianity, like the fusion of christian and jewish historical horizonts (and here I’m not thinking about the new vawe of Twenty Century esoterical christianity).
And why wouldn’t we do that?
