Rather, we might imagine, to supplement the right-to-left line for political stances, a linearly independent vector for romanticism. Left-romantics want to change people because they despair that systems can be changed or because they believe that systems will change to fit the change of people's needs. Left-unromantics (pragmatists?) want to change the system to change the man (or perhaps for more abstract reasons, justice, etc.). George Orwell, in his essay on Charles Dickens, recognized the trends, saying, "They appeal to different individuals, and they probably have a tendency to alternate in terms of time...

Into the Void. Off they went in the B-25 climbing through the clouds and circling north over the lake before heading back toward the field. When Pilot Karns thought he was in approximate position, he radioed the Federal Aviation Administration radar station at Oberlin, Ohio, for a radar vector. The Oberlin operator announced: "You are three miles west of Ortner." "Fine," radioed Karns. "I'm releasing my jumpers." Looking down, all anyone on the plane could see was clouds, broken here and there by patches of brownish green. Both the U.S. Parachute Association and the FAA have regulations...
This new student-faculty cooperation is often directed at a target outside the college. City College professors agreed last month to excuse from classes students who were picketing Governor Rockefeller's office to protest his impending vector of CCNY's free tuition bill. At Ohio the professors are organizing a lobby to protest the state legislature's plans for reapportionment. The University of Wisconsin has its Committee to Restore People to Politics, organized by students and faculty to spread information about Vietnam...
