Dialectic in the Film “Ladyhawke”
-- ‘The Dialectic of Night and Day’.
Dear Reader,
Pasted-in below is an E.D. ‘dialectogram’ describing ‘The Dialectic of Night and Day’ in general, and the subtle and specific use of that dialectic presented -- advertently or not -- in a classic but little-known American film of 1985, entitled “Ladyhawke”.
Apart from the instructive aspect of this film as an instantiation of breakthrough dialectical thinking in discovering a solution to a terrible conundrum, this
movie also ends in a way which I, for one, have seldom seen portrayed in
American cinema.
It ends with an ecstatic, sustained, and even communal
celebration of the triumph of the fallible, errant,
but still ethical human -- of human love, human courage, and human decency -- over the parasitism, sadism, and utter viciousness of self-de-humanized [in]human evil.
This is something that the ‘Rocke-Nazi’ ruling-class ruling-faction
hope that you will never, ever know anything about -- and they are flooding the
cinema and the television with ‘psychotic drivel’ with a view to enforcing that unknowingness.
FYI: Much of the work
of Karl Seldon, and of his collaborators, including work by “yours truly”, is

(1/2) - (1/2)^2 = (1/2) - (1/4) = +(1/4) not= 0.
Both propositions are true "some of the time" -- ~ "half" of the time -- and the truth-value of the proposition "It is Daytime." oscillates, on Earth, from T to F to T to F again ... every ~ 12 hours, as does, in counterpoint, the truth-value of the proposition "It is Nighttime".
