Something P-list led me to surf Luther and Erikson,
hence I found somewhat that is cool to vomit forth.

 A Prelude on the Babylonian Captivity of the Church (1520)

 "Like it or not, I am compelled to learn more every day,
 with so many and such able masters vying with one another
 to improve my mind."

 ENCYCLOPADIA BRITANNICA Erikson, Erik H.

        Erikson's eight crisis stages:

Trust vs. Mistrust
Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt
Initiative vs. Guilt
Industry vs. Inferiority
Identity vs. Identity Confusion
Intimacy vs. Isolation
Generativity vs. Stagnation
Integrity vs. Despair

        Inspiring eight schizophrenic alternations:

withdrawn sensory distortion -or- paranoid pollyana
compulsive impulsivity
ruthless inhibition
inertial virtuosity
fanatic repudiation
promiscuous exclusivity
overextended rejectivity -or- generative stangation
presumptive despair

BTW, I'm working on angle: accedia indeed is melancholia;
for Pynchon has mentioned such as Hamlet and Kafka.
Meanwhile, Here is an utility tidbit I uncovered:
