Tanner, Shakespeare, James, & Sci-Fi in America

[Kai Frederik Lorentzen]

This widening of focus reminds me of Borges who somewhere says
that metaphysics and theology are basically a branch of
SciFi/fantasy-literature.

Coming from Borges, this is a compliment.

"And the seventh kingdom says of him that he is a drop. It came
from heaven to earth. Dragons brought him down to caves. He
became a child. A spirit came upon him and brought him on
high to the place where the drop had come forth.
He received power and glory there.
And thus he came to the water." (The Apocalypse of Adam)
