If time flows in cycles, in travelling toward to-morrow you may befacing yesterday.
This "eternal return, " so far from being a new idea, is so old thatit has been forgotten. Its reappearance in novel guise, along withso many other recrudescences, itself beautifully illustrates timecurvature in consciousness. _Yugas_, time cycles, are an integraland inexpugnable part of Oriental metaphysics. "Since the soulperpetually runs, " says Zoroaster, "in a certain space of time itpasses through all thin...gs, which circulation being accomplished, itis compelled to run back again through all things, and unfold thesame web of generation in the world. " Time curvature is implicit inthe Greek idea of the iron, bronze, silver, and golden ages, succeeding each other in the same order: the winter, seed-time, summer and harvest of the larger year. Astrology, seership, prophecy, become plausible on the higher-time hypothesis. From this point ofview history becomes less puzzling and paradoxical. What were theMiddle Ages but a forgetting of Greek and Roman civilization, andwhat was the Renaissance but a remembering of them--a striving tore-create the ruined stage-settings and to re-enact the urbane playof Pagan life.
