Reviving Nietzsche's use of the ancient Greek gods Apollo and Dionysus as basic notions for understanding the emergence, growth and imminent, final decay of Western Culture, Carlos Wiggen goes through the historical process by selected interpretations of this culture's drama, thought and social structure. Is the spine of a radically new culture already forming? If so, what is its essence?
