IN THE DIGITAL AGE
We live in a digital age: television and films abound, and digital media and computing are building up the impressionable fascination of our present, that we should serve the future with tooth and nail and literacy! Books: witnesses of the ages, and always bearing valuable ideas to be turned over, which the yellowing of Time, eager to destroy
now they can gain new life-possibilities, the compassionate and creative hands of the elaborated human masters, who, entering the network of microchip systems, can resurrect themselves again as Prometheus, reborn in the peripheries of the digital revolution, and revived as a Prometheus body reborn in the peripheries of the digital revolution!
Away with the trampling judgments of the uninitiated and uneducated, or those who have no understanding of the heritage of values! To save values through the changing epochs of generations is not only an honourable and noble task, but also a constructive intellectual enterprise to preserve culture in its mother tongue!
Take care, man, of your witnessing past! Take great care! Without it, you can hardly understand the changing formula of the world at large, and in the present, rushing on, it is fitting to evaluate everything, weighing everything, so that you can look with a cool, considered head, next time, with a willful and persistent eye, into the face of your future, which you hardly know!
And it is necessary that the lines of the message-bearer, doomed to a finite immortality, may survive the years of the past, evolving and building in the fertilizing spirit of thought, so that the language of Atlantis itself may live even in cultures!
