PDF-(BOOK)-Eternity by the Stars: An Astronomical Hypothesis

In a century replete with radical politics final liberations historical codas and dreams of eternity the shadowy figure of LouisAuguste Blanqui the constant revolutionary wrote Eternity by the Stars in the last months of 1871 while incarcerated in Fort du Taureau a marine cell of the English Channel In the midst of contemplating his confinement Blanqui devises a simple calculation in which the infinity of time is confronted with the finite number of possible events to suggest a most radical conclusion every chain of events is bound to repeat itself eternally in space and time Our lives are being lived an infinity of times across the confines of the universe and death defeat success and glory are never final For the world is nothing but the play of probabilities on the great stage of time and space By straddling the boundaries of hyperrealism and hallucinatory thinking Blanquis hypothesis offers a deep tragic and heartfelt reflection on the place of the human in the universe the value of action and the aching that lies at the heart of every modern soul This first critical edition of Blanquis incantatory text in English features an extended introduction by Frank Chouraqui Exploring sources of Blanquis thinking in his intellectual context Chouraqui traces the legacy of the text in critiques of modernity devoting particular attention to the figures of Nietzsche Walter Benjamin and Borges It features copious illuminating annotations that bring out the web of connections which interlace the great marginal figure of Blanqui with more than two millennia of European culture.

Stace. described his life-changing experience at the Burton Street church in an interview with the Daily Telegraph in 1965, two years before his death:. John Ridley was a powerful preacher and he shouted, ‘I wish I could shout Eternity through the streets of Sydney.’ He repeated himself and kept shouting, ‘Eternity, Eternity’, and his words were ringing through my brain as I left the church. Suddenly I began crying and I felt a powerful call from the Lord to write ‘Eternity’. I had a piece of chalk in my pocket, and I bent down right there and wrote it.
