It took me ten years to collect all these texts dealing with the paradoxism, since I came to America, reading more than one thousand envelopes stuffed with manuscripts. They followed me at my address, often changed upon my job, in Phoenix and Tucson (Arizona) or in Gallup (New Mexico). I tried to answer each letter sending information on the paradoxism and also paradoxist diplomas where it was the case. Now I congratulate all these 100 writers who contributed to this anthology with poems, prose, dramas, essays, letters. This is an international fan on the dimensions of the paradoxism, twenty years after its setting up....

Excerpt Details
from Book I of Paradise Lost “Infernal world, and thou profoundest Hell Receive thy new Possessor: One who brings A mind not to be chang’d by Place or Time. The mind is its own place, and in it self Can make a Heav’n of Hell, a Hell of Heav’n. What matter where, if I be still the same, And what I should be, all but less then he Whom Thunder hath made greater? Here at least We shall be free; th’ Almighty hath not built Here for his envy, will not drive us hence: (260) Here we may reign secure, and in my choyce To reign is worth ambition though in Hell: Better to reign in Hell, then serve in Heav’n. But wherefore let we then our faithful friends, Th’ associates and copartners of our loss Lye thus astonisht on th’ oblivious Pool, And call them not to share with us their part In this unhappy Mansion, or once more With rallied Arms to try what may be yet Regaind in Heav’n, or what more lost in Hell? ”...
