Happenings Pages 7-11 A complete guide to the Ann Arbor entertainment B O O K S the work of some malicious demiurge-led me from our school textbook on Church history tdt my later readings in theology and the mistory of religious doctrines, and ultimately, years later, to my course on Manichaeism. Manichaean dualism was a radical attempt to separate good and evil, thoroughly enough that the Good God, lying behind the cosmos, could be freed from the stigma of having created evil. It posited that the creation of the world was due to an inferior demigod. Just as modern science has established the laws of biological determinism, so the ancients were for- ced to contend with astrological deter- minism. A Manichaean answer to either situation is to understand the cosmos as a prison-house in which the soul, whose origin is divine, is captive. Unlike E.M. Cioran, who sought bit- terly to revive a gnostic paganism in his essays The New Gods (1969), Milosz is tempered by a natural even- mindedness, and by his faithfulness to Una Sancta Catholica Ecclesia. It is not a revivified gnosticism that he searches for, but a revivified Church. He follows none of his intellectual in- fluences to their extreme. The Manichaean element must be related to another theme which appears in much of Milosz's writing, that of Exile. In ancient dualism, such as that of Marcion, the soul is seen as an exile from its original, divine home, thrown into this enclosed cell of the world, what Marcion called "haec cellula creatoris." Milosz traces this idea through Lurianic cabalism, and in far-reaching ways, exile becomes the primary characteristic of our age. Exile, before it became a phenomenon of the age, was once relatively rare; only later did it grow to the dimen- sions of a universal condition. Mass exile has been continuous since the Second World War. Milosz hiself, as an exile in America, finds that his con- dition, the condition of millions, is mirrored in our century and in our metaphysical condition. The theme of exile is of course basic to both Jewish and Christian experien- ce. In medieval Christianity, the im- pulse to find solitude, the readiness to admire the stylite and the nun who chose an extreme of isolation, derived from the ideals of the Desert Fathers, from a concept that the Church was a pilgrimage, from this world to the next, of an exiled humanity. This is why it does not seem strange to me that, in an era when science does not shy away from creating the mon- strum horrendum, or from traducing the common bonds of civilization, that the theme of exile is raised again, and science is called to account. It may be that the older tradition still has vitality.
