Subject: (urth) Sev: Satisfactory Conciliator?
Date: Tue, 23 Nov 1999 20:35:30 

With regard to the question of how satisfactory Sev's
career in the Age of the Monarch is as the basis for
the legend of the Conciliator: one mustn't forget
Canog's role as propagandist. His BOTNS, based on
Sev's account of the future given in prison, might be
a very skilful work of prophetic literature--as
persuasive as the Gospels have been, perhaps. By this
means, a few random miracles could acquire great
resonance--a comment by Wolfe on the power of the
written word, which records, and supersedes by
outlasting, mere actions.
