skriveborde byggede videre på forgængere, så fremtiden blev en helt

Montaigne droppede Paris-hoffet og sad på sit Bourdeau-slot og læste
Seneca og andre stoiske klassiske vismænd og blev betaget af
citatkunstens indholdsmættethed og søgte at overgå Nero-ministeren og
gjorde det.
Locke tænkte dybt over
*demokrati og ytringsfrihed* og afskyede det Cromwell-regimente som
netop havde afløst parlament og konge i nogle årtier. Det kan gøres
bedre og han viste hvordan, så USA's Jefferson derved gjordes til mere
end en sentimental Rousseausk romantiker og en ferm slaveejer med styr
på frugtbare negerslavinder.
Laing sparkede kritikken af den magtfulde hurtigt voksende psykiatri
lysår frem og analyserede århumdredets tysk-opfundne altoverskyggende
sindsyge, skitzofreni, og lagde ideologisk grund for "Gøgereden" og
andre dygtige krav om distriktspsykiari, som har sejret som mindre
djævelsk end alternativerne - 10 skridt frem og 9 tilbage
Vestens tænkere er noget at råbe højere hurra for end
popkunstner-underholder æsteterne. Stenalder-troen Islam kan lære
meget af os - og har langt igen.

anderledes."Montaigne
