The prevailing antithesis between art and science, which rends the two apart as areas of culture in order to make them jointly manageable as areas of culture, finally causes them, through their internal tendencies as exact opposites, to converge. #DoE
With advancing enlightenment, only authentic works of art have been able to avoid the mere imitation of what already is. #DialecticofEnlightenment
As image it must resign itself to being a likeness and, to be entirely nature, must renounce the claim to know it. #DoE
As sign, language must resign itself to being calculation and, to know nature, must renounce the claim to resemble it. #DoE
For science the word is first of all a sign; it is then distributed among the various arts as sound, image, or word proper, but its unity can never be restored by the addition of these arts, by synaesthesia or total art. #DoE
With the clean separation between science and poetry the division of labor which science had helped to establish was extended to language. #DoE
Beneath the modest veil of the Olympian *chronique scandaleuse* the doctrine of the commingling and colliding of elements had evolved; establishing itself at once as science, it turned the myths into figments of fantasy. #DoE
With their preanimistic traits they intrude into the enlightenment. #DialecticofEnlightenment
They still had about them a quality of *mana*; they embodied nature as a universal power. #DoE
The essence of the gods is not exhausted by individuality. #DoE
The scorn of the ancients for their all-too-human gods left their core untouched. #DoE
Contrary to the Jewish *Genesis*, the representations of creation in which the world emerges from the primal mother, the cow or the egg, are symbolic. #DoE
Inexhaustibility, endless renewal, and the permanence of what they signify are not only attributes of all symbols but their true content. #DialecticofEnlightenment
Nature as self-repetition is the core of the symbolic: an entity or process which is conceived as eternal because it is reenacted again and again in the guise of the symbol. #DoE
They, like magic rites, refer to the repetitive cycle of nature. #DialecticofEnlightenment
This function was transferred to myths. #DoE
As the hieroglyphs attest, the word originally also had a pictorial function. #DoE
The teachings of the priests were symbolic in the sense that in them sign and image coincided. #DoE
The blindfold over the eyes of Justitia means not only that justice brooks no interference but that it does not originate in freedom. #DoE
Now equivalence itself becomes a fetish. #DialecticofEnlightenment
