>Let us, then, recapitulate our argument, in order to try to suggest what
form the new civilization might take. We have two alternatives before us.
First, there is the possibility that imaginal thinking will not succeed in
incorporating conceptual thinking. This could lead to a generalized de-
politicization, deactivation, and alienation of humankind, to the victory
of the consumer society, and to the totalitarianism of the mass media.
Such a development would look very much like the present mass culture,
but in more exaggerated or gross form. The culture of the elite would dis-
appear for good, thus bringing history to an end in any meaningful sense
of that term. The second possibility is that imaginal thinking will succeed
in incorporating conceptual thinking. This would lead to new types of
communication in which man consciously assumes the structural posi-
tion. Science would then be no longer merely discursive and conceptual,
but would have recourse to imaginal models. Art would no longer work
at things (“oeuvres”), but would propose models. Politics would no
longer fight for the realizations of values, but would elaborate manipula-
ble hierarchies of models of behavior. All this would mean, in short, that

>Imaginal thought was a translation of
fact into image, and conceptual thought was a translation of image into
concept. (First there was the stone, then the image of the stone, then the
explanation of that image.) In the future, the situation may become thus:
Imaginal thought will be a translation from concept into image, and con-
ceptual thought a translation from image to concept. In such a feedback
situation, an adequate model can finally be elaborated. **First there will be
an image of something, then there will be an explanation of that image,
and then there will be an image of that explanation. This will result in a
model of something (this something having been, originally, a concept).
And this model may fit a stone (or some other fact, or nothing).** Thus a
fact, or the absence of a fact, will have been disclosed. There would once
more exist a criterion of distinction between fact and fiction (fit and
unfit models), and a sense of reality would have been recovered.
What has just been said is not an epistemological or ontological

However, to the extent that this encouragement proceeded as a mne-
mic function, in other words, had already been reformed once before by
art using preexisting forms, the act of restitution remained positioned
between impulsive self-release and a conscious and controlled use of
forms, in other words, between Dionysus and Apollo, and provided the
artistic genius with the psychic space for coining expressions out of his
most personal formal language.
