Epigraph: Every human society has its own shape, its own purposes, its own meanings. Every human society expresses these, in institutions, in arts and learning. The making of a society is the finding of common meanings and directions, and its growth is an active debate an amendment under the pressures of experience, contact, and discovering, writing themselves into the land.
