    I had in my hands a substantial ragment o the complete history o

    an unknown planet, with its architecture and its playing cards, its

    mythological terrors and the sounds o its dialects, its emperors andits oceans, its minerals, its birds and its fshes, its algebra and its fre,

    its theological and metaphysical arguments ...

    Jorge Luis Borges, 'Tln, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius'.

    There are myths that enslave women and men, and myths that set

    them ree.

    This every young Ni knows.

    This every La Mah teaches.

    Much of it, of course, is wrong.
