A Monumental “Art of the Fugue”

(Giorgio de Santillana)

This is meant to be only an essay. It is a first reconnaissance of a realm well-nigh unexplored and uncharted. From whichever way one enters it, one is caught in the same bewildering circular complexity, as in a labyrinth, for it has no deductive order in the abstract sense, but instead resembles an organism tightly closed in itself, or even better, a monumental „Art of the Fugue.“

Fugue – Style of Composition, not Fixed Structure

(Wikipedia)

Most fugues open with a short main theme, the subject, which then sounds successively in each voice (after the first voice is finished stating the subject, a second voice repeats the subject at a different pitch, and other voices repeat in the same way); when each voice has entered, the exposition is complete. This is often followed by a connecting passage, or episode, developed from previously heard material; further „entries“ of the subject then are heard in related keys. Episodes (if applicable) and entries are usually alternated until the „final entry“ of the subject, by which point the music has returned to the opening key, or tonic, which is often followed by closing material, the coda.[3][9] In this sense, a fugue is a style of composition, rather than a fixed structure.

Examples of Fugue Cipher Compositions

(See below.)

The cumulative Cipher Value of the First folio text of the encounter in Act I, Sc. v between Prince Hamlet and the Ghost of his Father can be parsed at successive points so as to relate the dialogue to associated „hidden poetry“ (Snorri Sturluson‘s term) on its underlying prophetic aspects.

Five such sub-Cipher Values are marked towards the right margin, the first three of which are spelled out to illustrate the fugue-style of cipher compositions in the Augustan-Saga-Shakespeare tradition.

¹ Message posted to friends, 26 February 2014:

While visiting Iceland last August, I met with Pétur Halldórsson over coffee at the Cafe Milano in Reykjavík. We discussed matters of mutual interest, including what my Saga Cipher work might possibly “mean“.

I took a napkin and, for emphasis, wrote down the number 438097, which I have posted [previously].

This is the final cumulative sum of a very large number of [contemporary] names of individuals, institutions, dates and events, including two famous murder cases, a sex scandal in high places, and presumptive lies told in connection therewith.

As I recall it, I first put this number on record in an [earlier] message, explaining that I would not be providing any further details on it. That remains my position for the time being.

I told Pétur (what I had long surmised) that I believed that this number was associated with a watershed event in human history whose final phase was upon our world.

An earth-shaking culmination of human and spiritual evolution.

An Overview – Hamlet’s Mill

(Giorgio de Santillana)

This is meant to be only an essay. It is a first reconnaissance of a realm well-nigh unexplored and uncharted. From whichever way one enters it, one is caught in the same bewildering circular complexity, as in a labyrinth, for it has no deductive order in the abstract sense, but instead resembles an organism tightly closed in itself, or even better, a monumental „Art of the Fugue.“

The figure of Hamlet as a favorable starting point came by chance. Many other avenues offered themselves, rich in strange symbols and beckoning with great images, but the choice went to Hamlet because he led the mind on a truly inductive quest through a familiar landscape – and one which has the merit of its literary setting. Here is a character deeply present to our awareness, in whom ambiguities and uncertainties, tormented self-questioning and dispassionate insight give a presentiment of the modern mind. His personal drama was that he had to be a hero, but still try to avoid the role Destiny assigned him. His lucid intellect remained above the conflict of motives – in other words, his was and is a truly contemporary consciousness. And yet this character whom the poet made one of us, the first unhappy intellectual, concealed a past as a legendary being, his features predetermined, preshaped by long-standing myth. There was a numinous aura around him, and many clues led up to him. But it was a surprise to find behind the mask an ancient and all-embracing cosmic power – the original master of the dreamed-of first age of the world.

Yet in all his guises he remained strangely himself. The original Amlóði, as his name was in Icelandic legend, shows the same characteristics of melancholy and high intellect. He, too, is a son dedicated to avenge his father, a speaker of cryptic but inescapable truths, an elusive carrier of Fate who must yield once his mission is accomplished and sink once more into concealment in the depths of time to which he belongs: Lord of the Golden Age, the Once and Future King.

This essay will follow the figure farther and farther afield, from the Northland to Rome, from there to Finland, Iran, and India; he will appear again unmistakably in Polynesian legend. Many other Dominions and Powers will materialize to frame him within the proper order.

Amlóði was identified, in the crude and vivid imagery of the Norse, by the ownership of a fabled mill which, in his own time, ground out peace and plenty. Later, in decaying times, it ground out salt; and now finally, having landed at the bottom of the sea, it is grinding rock and sand, creating a vast whirlpool, the Maelstrom (i.e. the grinding stream, from the [Icelandic] verb mala, „to grind“), which is supposed to be a way to the land of the dead. This imagery stands, as the evidence develops, for an astronomical process, the secular shifting of the sun through the signs of the zodiac which determines world-ages, each numbering thousands of years. Each age brings a World Era, a Twilight of the Gods. Great structures collapse; pillars topple which supported the great fabric; floods and cataclysms herald the shaping of a new world. (Hamlet’s Mill – An Essay on Myth and the Frame of Time, 1969; Second Paperback Edition, David R. Godine, Publisher, Boston, 1983, pp. 1-2.)

Hamlet’s Mill – Reception by scholars

(Wikipedia)

Hamlet’s Mill was severely criticized by academic reviewers on a number of grounds: tenuous arguments based on incorrect or outdated linguistic information; lack of familiarity with modern sources; an over-reliance on coincidence or analogy; and the general implausibility of a far-flung and influential civilization existing and not leaving behind solid evidence. At most, it has been given a grudging sort of praise. Thus, Jaan Puhvel (1970) concluded that

„This is not a serious scholarly work on the problem of myth in the closing decades of the twentieth century. There are frequent flashes of insight, for example, on the cyclical world views of the ancients and on the nature of mythical language, as well as genuinely eloquent, quasi-poetic homilies.“

Writing in The New York Review of Books, Edmund Leach noted:

“[The] authors’ insistence that between about 4000 B.C. and 100 A.D. a single archaic system prevailed throughout most of the civilized and proto-civilized world is pure fantasy. Their attempt to delineate the details of this system by a worldwide scatter of random oddments of mythology is no more than an intellectual game. […] Something like 60 percent of the text is made up of complex arguments about Indo-European etymologies which would have seemed old-fashioned as early as 1870.”

R. Ellis Davidson referred to Hamlet’s Mill as

„amateurish in the worst sense, jumping to wild conclusions without any knowledge of the historical value of the sources or of previous work done. On the Scandinavian side there is heavy dependence on the fantasies of Rydberg, writing in the last [19th] century, and apparent ignorance of progress made since his time.“

In contrast the classical scholar Harald Reiche positively reviewed Hamlet’s Mill. However Reiche was a colleague of Santillana at MIT, and himself developed the archaeoastronomical interpretation of ancient myth in a series of lectures and publications similar to Hamlet’s Mill (dealing more specifically with Greek mythology), including an interpretation of „the layout of Atlantis as a sort of map of the sky“.

Barber & Barber (2006), itself a study aiming to „uncover seismic, geological, astrological, or other natural events“ from mythology, appreciates the book for its pioneer work in mythography, judging that „Although controversial, [Santillana and von Dechend] have usefully flagged and collected Herculean amounts of relevant data.“ Nevertheless, the conclusions the authors draw from their data have been „virtually ignored by the scientific and scholarly establishment.”

Augustan-Saga-Shakespeare Myth

Hamlet’s Revenge

As will be outlined further in two follow-up notes, the encounter between Prince Hamlet with the Ghost of his Father in Act I, Sc. v of the play in the First folio of 1623,, where the Prince swears to avenge his Father‘s murder, has a Cipher Value of 1658168, as in 262982 + 552503 + 777077 + 65613 – 7 = 1658168.

The first three components are the Cipher Values of (i) the Myth‘s foundational text known as Horace‘s Monument, (ii) its universal scope conveyed in terms of men slain or fatally wounded at Armageddon as recreated in an account by Saga Author Sturla Þórðarson (d. 1284), and (iii) its application at the level of individuals as represented by a 13^th century account of Sturla Þórðarson’s final years and death.

Prince Hamlet is archetypal Hebrew Man of Seventh Day, whose death (-7) represents at once fulfilment of Hamlet‘s oath of revenge and the core psychological aspect of the drama, namely, the overcoming by Prince Hamlet of himself. Essential aspects of Pythagorean Creation Myth are reflected in 65613, which is the Cipher Value of Prince Hamlet‘s words immediately after exit of the Ghost of his Father:

18729 = Oh all you host of heauen! Oh Earth; what els?

15857 = And shall I couple Hell? Oh fie: hold my heart

21200 = And you my sinnewes, grow not instant Old;

9827 = But beare me stiffely yp.

Message posted to friends, 26 February 2014:

While visiting Iceland last August, I met with Pétur Halldórsson over coffee at the Cafe Milano in Reykjavík. We discussed matters of mutual interest, including what my Saga Cipher work might possibly “mean“.

I took a napkin and, for emphasis, wrote down the number 438097, which I have posted [previously].

This is the final cumulative sum of a very large number of [contemporary] names of individuals, institutions, dates and events, including two famous murder cases, a sex scandal in high places, and presumptive lies told in connection therewith.

As I recall it, I first put this number on record in an [earlier] message, explaining that I would not be providing any further details on it. That remains my position for the time being.

I told Pétur (what I had long surmised) that I believed that this number was associated with a watershed event in human history whose final phase was upon our world.

An earth-shaking culmination of human and spiritual evolution.

[4] Message posted to friends, 26 February 2014:

While visiting Iceland last August, I met with Pétur Halldórsson over coffee at the Cafe Milano in Reykjavík. We discussed matters of mutual interest, including what my Saga Cipher work might possibly “mean“.

I took a napkin and, for emphasis, wrote down the number 438097, which I have posted [previously].

This is the final cumulative sum of a very large number of [contemporary] names of individuals, institutions, dates and events, including two famous murder cases, a sex scandal in high places, and presumptive lies told in connection therewith.

As I recall it, I first put this number on record in an [earlier] message, explaining that I would not be providing any further details on it. That remains my position for the time being.

I told Pétur (what I had long surmised) that I believed that this number was associated with a watershed event in human history whose final phase was upon our world.

An earth-shaking culmination of human and spiritual evolution.

[5] This book is named Edda. It has been put together by Snorri Sturluson in the manner which is here ordered. First is an account of the Aesir and Ymir, thereafter poetry and the names of many things. Last poems which Snorri has composed for King Hakon and Duke Skuli.

Vísindin efla alla dáð – eða þannig.

Snorri Sturluson fæddist í Hvammi í Dölum árið 1178 og var veginn í Reykholti árið 1241. Hann var mikill stjórnmálamaður, fræðimaður og eitt merkasta skáld Íslendinga en hann skrifaði meðal annars Heimskringlu og Eddu. Sumir fræðimenn telja hann einnig höfund Egils sögu.

Snorri var sonur Hvamm-Sturlu og tilheyrði einni valdamestu höfðingjaætt landsins á 13. öldinni, Sturlungum. Hann var auðugur goðorðsmaður og fór með mikil völd í landinu í sinni tíð.

Síðustu ár sín dvaldi Snorri í Noregi um nokkurt skeið og gerðist lénsmaður Hákonar Noregskonungs. Í dvöl sinni þar í landi dróst hann inn í deilur á milli Hákonar konungs og Skúla jarls sem áttu eftir að hafa afdrifaríkar afleiðingar í för með sér. Snorra og Skúla samdi vel og þegar Skúli gerði misheppnaða uppreisn gegn Hákoni studdi Snorri hann í ætlunarverkinu og komst þar með í óvild hjá konungi.

Á meðan á dvöl hans stóð í Noregi geisuðu átök á Íslandi á milli Sturlunga og Haukdæla og féllu Sturla, bróðursonur Snorra, Sighvatur faðir hans og tugir annarra í frægum bardaga höðingjaættanna við Örlygsstaði í Skagafirði árið 1238. Hægt er að lesa frekar um deilurnar og aðdraganda þeirra í svari Skúla Sæland við spurningunni Hvað var Sturlungaöld?

Eftir að hafa frétt af falli skyldmenna sinna vildi Snorri snúa aftur heim til Íslands en það gerði hann þvert á vilja konungs, sem var honum reiður fyrir að hafa gengið í lið með Skúla jarli. Hákon vildi því refsa Snorra fyrir svikin og fékk Gissur Þorvaldsson úr liði Haukdæla, sem einnig var lénsmaður konungs, til þess að hafa uppi á Snorra og drepa hann. Gissur hélt ásamt sjötíu manna liði að Reykholti þar sem Snorri bjó með fjölskyldu sinni og kom þangað um nótt 23. september árið 1241. Gissur og menn hans komu Snorra að óvörum og fundu hann í kjallaranum á heimili sínu og þaðan kom Snorri ekki lifandi aftur. Í Sturlungu er þessu lýst svo:

Eftir það urðu þeir varir við hvar Snorri var og gengu þeir í kjallarann Markús Marðarson, Símon knútur, Árni beiskur, Þorsteinn Guðinason, Þórarinn Ásgrímsson. Símon knútur bað Árna höggva hann.

„Eigi skal höggva,“ sagði Snorri.

„Högg þú,“ sagði Símon.

„Eigi skal höggva,“ sagði Snorri.

Eftir það veitti Árni honum banasár og báðir þeir Þorsteinn unnu á honum.

Þetta voru lokaorð Snorra Sturlusonar sem var drepinn varnarlaus á heimili sínu.

[1] In the beginning Almighty God created heaven and earth and all those things which are in them; and last of all, two of human kind, Adam and Eve, from whom the races are descended. And their offspring multiplied among themselves and were scattered throughout the earth. But as time passed, the races of men became unlike in nature: some were good and believed on the right; but many more turned after the lusts of the world and slighted God’s command. Wherefore, God drowned the world in a swelling of the sea, and all living things, save them alone that were in the ark with Noah. After Noah’s flood eight of mankind remained alive, who peopled the earth; and the races descended from them. And it was even as before: when the earth was full of folk and inhabited of many, then all the multitude of mankind began to love greed, wealth, and worldly honor, but neglected the worship of God. Now accordingly it came to so evil a pass that they would not name God; and who then could tell their sons of God’s mighty wonders?

[2] We believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of all things visible and invisible;And in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, begotten from the Father, only-begotten, that is, from the substance of the Father, God from God, light from light, true God from true God, begotten not made, of one substance with the Father, through Whom all things came into being, things in heaven and things on earth, Who because of us men and because of our salvation came down, and became incarnate and became man, and suffered, and rose again on the third day, and ascended to the heavens, and will come to judge the living and dead, And in the Holy Spirit. But as for those who say, There was when He was not, and, Before being born He was not, and that He came into existence out of nothing, or who assert that the Son of God is of a different hypostasis or substance, or created, or is subject to alteration or change – these the Catholic and apostolic Church anathematizes.

[3] I have created a monument more lasting than bronze and loftier than the royal pyramids, a monument which neither the biting rain nor the raging North Wind can destroy, nor can the countless years and the passing of the seasons.  I will not entirely die and a great part of me will avoid Libitina, the goddess of Death; I will grow greater and greater in times to come, kept fresh by praise.  So long as the high priest climbs the stairs of the Capitolium, accompanied by the silent Vestal Virgin, I, now powerful but from humble origins, will be said to be the first to have brought Aeolian song to Latin meter where the raging Aufidius roars and where parched Daunus ruled over the country folk.  Embrace my pride, deservedly earned, Muse, and willingly crown me with Apollo’s laurel.

Dear David,

I just checked out Psalm 75:6 as well as Psalm 75 in its entirety. The psalm’s “cup” imagery brought to mind the final scene of Hamlet whose poisoned “cup” imagery I had not been able to place in context.

On revisiting earlier work on the Hamlet scene, the non-mention of “the North” in verse 75:6 and the curious mention of “promotion” immediately made sense in the context of Saga-Shakespeare Myth on the working assumption that “the North” in question referred to Snorri Sturluson’s Reykjaholt estate, where he was “murdered” on the night of autumnal equinox, 23 September 1241:

GrassConceals And Rain Blots Out

In the Père-Lachaise cemetery, in the neighborhood of the potters’ field, far from the elegant quarter of that city of sepulchers, far from all those fantastic tombs that display in presence of eternity the hideous fashions of death, in a deserted corner, beside an old wall, beneath a great yew on which the bindweed climbs, among the dog-grass and the mosses, there is a stone. This stone is exempt no more than the rest from the leprosy of time, from the mold, the lichen, and the birds’ droppings. The air turns it black, the water green. It is near no path, and people do not like to go in that direction, because the grass is high, and they would wet their feet. All around there is a rustling of wild oats. In spring, the linnets come to sing in the tree.
This stone is entirely blank. The only thought in cutting it was of the essentials of the grave, and there was no other care than to make this stone long enough and narrow enough to cover a man.
No name can be read there.
Only many years ago, a hand wrote on it in pencil these four lines, which have gradually become illegible under the rain and the dust, and are probably gone by now:
23994 = Il dort. Quoique le sort fût pour lui bien étrange.

22982 = Il vivait. Il mourut quand il n’eut plus son ange.

15117 = La chose simplement d’elle-même arriva,

19824 = Comme la nuit se fait lorsque le jour s’en va.

81917

He is asleep. Though his mettle was sorely tried,

He lived, and when he lost his angel, died.

It happened calmly, on its own,

The way night comes when day is done.
