Zeitgeister

Ages, Zeitgeister, national, and racial minds seem to me to have outlived their usefulness, if they ever had any…

In its largest dimension the dual theme of the novella is an historical antithesis: two ages, two Zeitgeister stand tensely opposed to each other in the painful period of transition.

The moral to this anomaly may be that Zeitgeister are unreliable because afflicted with tunnel vision.

There is also a sense in which particular Zeitgeister may have an impact upon facets of the results that are gleaned from an empirical study.
