Has anyone read both Terry Pratchett's Small Gods and Harry Turtledove's Between the Rivers and would be interesting into putting them both into dialogue with Gnosticism and Julian Jaynes' "bicameral mind theories?

Quote from: mximo on May 03, 2024, 11:25:52 PMWhy not hold an election to find a new king or queen? Why not consulted? Do we really need a king? Isn't it time for a debate? And you, Mr. Absent King, couldn't you just abdicate and finally give us some fresh air?

QuoteWe declare that it is our intention to abdicate our throne.
