"crowned anarchy: the sinister agreement with contradictions"

Posted by Aquél in“Terrors upon terrors run shouting through his soul. In all his cringing attitudes, the God-fugitive is now too plainly known. The sailors mark him, more and more grow their suspicions of him, and at last, fully to test the truth, by referring the whole matter to high Heaven, they fall to casting lots, to see for whose cause this greeat tempest was upon them. The lot is Jonah’s; that discovered, then how furiously mob him with their questions. ‘What is thine occupation? Whence comes thou? Thy country? What people?’”

“Woe to him whom this world charms from Gospel duty! Woe to him whom seeks to pour oil upon the waters when God has brewed them into a gale! Woe to him who seeks to please rather than to appall! Woe to him whose good name is more to him than goodness! Woe to him whom, in this world courts not dishonour! Woe to him who would not be true, even though to be false were salvation! Yea, woe to him who, as the great Pilot Paul has it, while preaching to others is a castaway!
From Moby Dick by Herman Melville
“But what frightened me most was that flaming column, spouting volcanically from depths profound and inconceivable, casting no shadows, as healthy flame should, and coating the nitrous stone with a nasty, venomous verdigris. For in all that seething combustion no warmth lay, but only the claminess of death and corruption”
From The Whisper in Darkness by H. P. Lovecraft
“Se ha podido señalar que la palabra “anomal”, adjetivo caído en desuso, tenía un origen muy diferente de “anormal” (..) Nosotros, los brujos, sabemos perfectamente que las contradicciones son reales, pero que las contradicciones reales no lo son en serio. Pues la cuestión es la siguiente: ¿cuál es exactamente la naturaleza del anomal? ¿Qué función tiene con relación a la banda, a la manada? Es evidente que el anomal no es simplemente un individuo excepcional, lo que le reduciría al animal familiar o doméstico, edipizado a la manera del padre…,etc.(…) El anomal, el elemento preferencial de la manada, no tiene nada que ver en el individuo favorito, doméstico y psicoanalítico. Pero el anomal tampoco es un representante de una especie, aquel que presentaría los caracteres específicos y genéricos en su estado más puro, modelo o ejemplar único, perfección típica encarnada, término eminente de una serie, o soporte de una correspondencia absolutamente armoniosa. El anomal no es individuo ni especie, sólo contiene afectos (…) Lovecraft llama Outsider a esa cosa o entidad que llega y desborda por el borde, lineal y sin embargo múltiple, “rebosante, efervescente, tumultuosa, espumeante que se extiende como una enfermedad infecciosa, a ese horror sin nombre.”
