(1968) was adapted for the cult movie blade runner (1982). a remarkable collection of six t.ls.s., love, phil , each with a small drawing of a heart and arrow in his hand at the side of the signatures, twenty-one pages (total), 4to, n.p. (santa ana, california), february 1981, all to professor patricia warrick ( \u2018dear pat\u2019 ). over a period of just a few days dick writes at great length to his correspondent (three of the letters written on the same day, 14 th february, of which one runs to seven pages) and discusses various topics including his valis trilogy, christianity and religion, philosophers including plato, plotinus, dante, malebranche, kant, mercia eliade and others, american politics (likening the united states president to the \u2018 grim king \u2019 who must be overthrown), reincarnation, the occult, consciousness of time, the films star wars and all that jazz and other subjects, perhaps most importantly the series of mystical experiences he faced in 1974. \n brief extracts from the letters include \u2013 \n \u2018i just reread valis in its entirety. i now understand. there is another \u201ctime\u201d or reality; it does not lie in the future\u2026..like the dream-time (perhaps because it is the dream-time) it is now and it is here. it is disclosed by sacrament and by god\u2019s grace through revelation \u2013 revelation of christian apocalyptic history, exactly as i saw. in this other time (illo tempore) christ is present , but in our linear flux time he is not and, perhaps, never will be. this is exactly and precisely what february 1974 to february 1975 consisted of\u2026\u2026the two times or realms bear some kind of relation to each other; in some way they interact (or have a common basis), but i can\u2019t say how. this explains why i \u201cremembered\u201d in february 1974 when i saw the golden fish sign\u2026..it is world as god\u2019s plantation, and the whole story is in valis. the search at the end for the savior is a search by fat (myself) to find the way back to that world, misconstrued in terms of space, and in terms of time\u2026.valis was christ, but the question as to whether i went there or he came here totally baffles me\u2026..the faith that fat and phil feel at the end of valis is the only route; it must be absolute, unfailing and eternal; and yet still god\u2019s grace is necessary if the savior is to be \u201cfound\u201d. valis is a valid, true, accurate and sufficient account of participation in this other time or realm where christ is rather than is not\u2026..as plotinus says, this is not a journey through space; it is a journey from a lower realm to a higher one. all this is very strange, but i know it absolutely upon rereading valis. i know it but i can\u2019t explicate or propound it; yet what i say is true\u2026..valis, then, is an extraordinary and extraordinarily important record of this finding of this other reality, realm, world of time. i repeat: beyond doubt, what was found is absolutely real\u2019 . (10 th february 1981) \n \n \u2018when i reread valis the other day\u2026..there was something else i noticed, something i had not realised was there. a coherent system for political action of a revolutionary nature can dimly be apprehended through the obscuring layers of philosophy and theology and science fiction. i am wondering, therefore, what effect \u2013 if any \u2013 valis will have on born-again christians, inasmuch as they are into apocalyptic speculations \u2013 as my novel is. just as in revelation \u201cbabylon\u201d is identified as rome, i go on and identity \u201crome\u201d as the imperial american presidency. i bipolarize true christianity to this modern-day rome and stigmatize the american government as the incarnation and physical manifestation of satan\u2026..in fact, valis seems to me to be a very political book \u2013 virtually a manifesto and to a certain extent even a handbook of rebellion\u2026\u2026.deconstructed, valis, then, is a political novel, more so than any i\u2019ve previously written. what apparently happened in march 1974 was that my political views and my religious inclinations and convictions, which up to then were at odds, fused as thesis and antithesis in me into one higher synthesis, so that my theology can be said to have explicit political implications, or it can with equal accuracy be said that i now see my political views as emanating from divine authority, represented in valis by sophia and of course by valis itself in the movie valis . which is to say, its successful attack on and overthrow of nixon\u2026\u2026once again my right hand did not know what my left hand was doing. i thought i was writing a theological, philosophical novel; but, as i say, in view of the regime that has just now come to power here in the u.s., valis can be interpreted as a call for political action against that regime, and not limiting itself to legal acts. it is as if upon experiencing a christian conversion (march 1974) i then went on and wrote the political novel that up to then i had always been afraid to write \u2013 wanted to write but feared to\u2026\u2026oddly, valis, then, is the reverse of flow my tears, wherein the overt or external or outer or exoteric message is political\u2026..valis appears to be theological and yet carries a covert message in which violent revolution against the regime is preached\u2026..what is strange is that in writing valis i was totally unaware that i was preaching revolution, the same revolution i have always preached; but, now possessing divine sanction, in fact divine authorship, i was free (as i say) for the first time to come forth and preach it openly\u2026..i am, frankly, very joyful that i got such a radical political novel published \u2013 in the guise of a theological-philosophical sci-fi novel\u2026\u2026so i guess i experienced what jung calls \u201cthe reconciliation of the psychic opposites\u201d, this being what march 1974 was all about; the opposites (politics and religion) were fused into a higher synthesis\u2026..and out of this came valis. when one reflects on the current political climate, valis is extraordinary indeed, and very much needed\u2019 (12 th february 1981) \n \n \u2018i wish to put forth a very powerful argument regarding the spiritual, psychological effect of apprehending the forms through anamnesis, because i now understand \u2013 i think \u2013 what the mind of the percipient fathoms when he apprehends that forms exist, and apprehends them specifically through anamnesis: the loss of amnesia and hence the recovery of prenatal memories. it is pointed out somewhere in my reference books\u2026..that a recollection of a former life or even of several or many former lives is not a guarantee of immortality. this is a logical error often made; viz: if i lived before this lifetime i will therefore live again after this lifetime. but this does not follow; this lifetime could be the final one\u2026..this is why occult books dealing with reincarnation are really not worth anything\u2026..i\u2019ve said always that i really did not know what my brain inferred from my meta-abstraction of february 1974; the inference was non-verbal or supra-verbal, anyhow averbal. yet i think \u2013 i think; i do not know \u2013 that i understand, dimly, what my brain inferred in that brief instant: correctly inferred, simply, it inferred that things do not perish \u2026\u2026.contrast this with the lumpen occult twaddle about having been \u201ckhai of ancient khem\u201d, as a berkley novel to be released in march is called; it is about \u201ca man who lives in two different time periods\u201d. kleo\u2019s cheap sneer about my memory of being thomas in the first century c.e. has forced me to analyze my meta-abstraction to see what in fact my brain did infer. i think i am on the right track, here. and this would explain my experiencing primal dread in march 1974; the final and ultimate battle to establish my own being had joined. and, fortunately, out of this encounter came my sense of my own being. for the first time in my life. and since then \u2013 no more anxiety\u2019 (13 th february 1981) \n \n \u2018i have now got an ingenious way of explaining how the universals \u2013 plato\u2019s forms \u2013 are apprehended; i know exactly what the process is that the brain goes through; what material it receives and handles and how it handles it; i.e. what correct inference it draws. the percept-system (that is, the senses) reports to the brain the following: the same thing exists at two places and two times. that is, one object is seen twice\u2026..the brain will then perform what i call a \u201cmeta-abstraction\u201d. it is upon this meta-abstraction that the conception of universals in the sense of platonic forms is based\u2026.let me give you an example. a new mother approaches her baby\u2019s crib. then she goes away. presently she returns. again she goes away and again, presently, she returns. the brain of the baby comes to the correct conclusion that there are not three mothers but one seen three times\u2026..unless this mental operation is done, however, it will be impossible for the brain to organize its sense-data into any kind of coherency, because of course it does not do this with just the one thing (the mother) but with all things\u2026..however, the meta-abstraction from particulars to plato\u2019s forms is rare\u2026..it is as logical and as important, and it serves the same purpose: organizing chaos into structure, intelligible structure. however, few people (brains) do it, because to do it you as a brain must see the same object (particular) at two different times and two different places\u2026..and how often does this happen? it can happen only if there is anamnesis; that\u2019s how often it happens, which is not very often\u2026.\u2019 (14 th february 1981) \n \n \u2018when the percipient sees the syntonic blending of two spatiotemporal continua he is seeing two things: (1) the irreality of the flux world, or, more precisely, its semireality, its derived existence; and (2) the truly real form world. he has not abolished world; he has abstracted the forms and now apperceives them in place of the flux realm. thus no true acosmism is involved. the percipient has done nothing more than apply the same logic of abstraction that he applied as an infant when he grasped the fact that it was not three mothers who entered his room and approached his crib but one mother three times\u2026..how wonderful it would be if we could monitor an infant\u2019s mind at the occasion of this initial abstraction!......just suppose, theoretically, what his world was like before his mind performed this operation. surely, pure chaos reigned\u2026..i have, then, if i am correct, located and explicated the fundamental abstracting logical operation common to not just all humans but to all higher creatures in general. if i am correct \u2013 if \u2013 then i have achieved a significant breakthrough in understanding how the universals \u2013 not just universals but specifically platonic eide, plato\u2019s forms \u2013 are apprehended, why, and, perhaps most important of all, for what reasons we can conclude that this meta-abstracting is absolutely necessary, logical and invincible given the sense-data presented to the percipient\u2026..god might understand reality, but we would not. my reference sources make this point. nominalism is essentially an impossible doctrine; we all must function on the basis of a perception of or the supposition of recurrent constants (universals). world simply cannot, from a pragmatic standpoint, be viewed as an endless procession of unique objects and processes. the real question is not, \u201care there universals?\u201d but, \u201chow far are we going to carry the doctrine of universals?\u201d\u2026\u2026 something must occur that triggers off the final meta-abstracting; plato spoke if something encountered that reminds us of our forgotten former life. i call it a \u201cdisinhibiting stimulus\u201d. maybe it\u2019s a large black slab, as in 2001. (i seem to be joking but i am not. my meta-abstracting in february 1974 did not randomly happen; it was induced\u2026..it is sufficient for me right now to explicate the logical steps the brain takes, not to determine a divine cause.)\u2019 (14 th february 1981) \n \n \u2018recognition by its very nature involves memory\u2026.it seems to be necessary to redefine \u201canamnesis\u201d, but it is impossible that it can be redefined without retaining the element of memory. there is no doubt whatsoever that in february 1974 when i saw the golden fish sign and heard the girl\u2019s words i remembered. that is precisely and specifically what happened and i knew it at the time. i remembered and because i remembered i understood; it all came back to me in an instant, a world (not this one), a way of life (not this one), a place (not this place), a time (not this time); most of all, not phil dick\u2026..let us say that something exists outside of time. where does it exist? clearly nowhere; it cannot occupy space and be exempt from time. so it is not an object. when i saw the golden fish sign i did not see an object but a shape, as a triangle is a shape; that can exist outside of space and time, and that does not perish. more accurately, the golden fish sign \u2013 the jewelry that the girl wore \u2013 was a message; it was information conveyed to me (hence the crucial importance of her words). what, then, was the message? we are here . she identified the \u201cwe\u201d: early christian, therefore secret christians operating illegally and against the state\u2026\u2026now, as impossible as it may seem, i did not know in february 1974 that the early christians identified themselves with the fish sign; i say \u201cit sounds impossible\u201d because every seventh car i see these days has the christian fish sign on it\u2026..but as i see it now, i had noted the same thing at two times and two places. 1) this thing (christian fish sign) existed in the roman empire in the first century c.e. 2) this thing (christian fish sign) existed now, in the united states, in california in 1974 c.e. premise: one thing cannot exist at two different places and two different times. conclusion: therefore it is an illusion that \u201ctwo different places and two different times\u201d are involved, despite the evidence of my senses. whereupon, sure enough, rome (the middle east, more precisely) of the first century c.e. faded into palpability, to commingle with u.s.a. 1974 c.e., exactly as my inexorable logic stipulated did my percept-system simply ape my mental operation?......the answer is contained \u2013 not in what happened that day \u2013 but what happened a month later. the middle east of the first century c.e. literally forced its way into palpability; it could not be denied or restrained. and at that point i no longer held any mental convictions on the matter. nor was i any longer under the influence of the sodium pentathol. nor were the girl and her golden fish sign present. that antique world pushed forward into palpability because (i think) it was the outer analog of a vast system of inner recognitions and memories surfacing in my mind\u2026..i remembered being an early secret christian, and kleo\u2019s cheap sneer is absurd because in no way was there any glory involved in that life; there was fear, great fear, and hiding, and running, and exchanging covert identification signs, and waiting for the romans to kill us, and performing the primitive sacraments in utter stealth\u2026..jesus had died and although we anticipated his return he had in fact not returned. the only thing keeping us going was the anticipation of his imminent return. meanwhile, the lord\u2019s supper kept us in touch with him\u2026..i know this will sound strange, but for us the lord\u2019s supper was like the hologram of the princess in star wars\u2026..this is a dreadful thing to say, but the holy spirit was a sophisticated recording. it dealt only with the past. the future christ, which is to say the parousia, was withheld. thus time was essentially frozen, and that is my whole point; my anamnesis retrieved what had already happened\u2026\u2026what terrifies me (it is even traumatic to admit it) is that i have the nagging sense that the prophecies by the ai voice\u2026.are in some very real sense taped messages, programmed to play once the disinhibiting stimulus has set the mechanism into motion; i mean, these are messages encoded in my brain from early times\u2026\u2026this is all ghastly, but \u2013 i am talking about a memory-packet set to fire on the basis of the right signal\u2026..but how is a memory packet, as marvelous and awesome as it is, going to bring about the millennial kingdom?.....the memory packet is frozen\u2026..i have the sensation that no time is passing, that the tyranny is a constant, the overthrow of the tyranny is a constant, and, finally, the return of the tyranny is a constant\u2026..is there no end to this?.....perhaps this is simply a perpetual dialectic, on the order of yin and yang\u2026..the millennial kingdom is what you are striving for, but the game is the reality\u2026..i am describing hell\u2026.hell in the sense of eternally striving but never getting any closer. this is what you do to people in inferno. the president [ronald reagan] we have now is worse than any we have had before. he is worse than nixon\u2026..it will soon be legal for an fbi undercover operative to commit murder in order to maintain his cover (really)\u2026..the mx missile will be approved. likewise the neutron bomb\u2026\u2026likewise a central data bank to gather information on domestic sedition, or suspected sedition, which includes \u201cterrorism\u201d, probably defined as any group of two or more blacks with a .22 pistol and a couple of lids of grass\u2026..as regards the soviet union, i saw on the tv\u2026..that people from south east asia\u2026..are dying in their sleep from the effects of nerve gas that the u.s.s.r. used on them back in cambodia or wherever the fuck they came from\u2026..we are monsters facing monsters\u2026..i get letters begging for money to feed the surviving veterans of the loyalist army of spain now living in incredible poverty in france; these were my heroes and they are toothless old men poking in garbage cans, forgotten by every country in the world, and by jane fonda and joan baez and anyone else you want to name. i came close to being murdered for my anti-war activity in the sixties; my physical and mental health is permanently affected for as long as i live, and for what?.......on the other hand i saw bob fosse\u2019s film all that jazz and i thought, had i been created for this moment it would alone justify my entire life\u2026..never have the themes of death and fatal destiny in the true tragic sense been expressed like this; death is transformed into a glorious hallucination\u2026\u2026death celebrated in color and sound and motion to such a height that it assumes a visage so dreadful that even in its perfect beauty it is terrible beyond what we had ever, as a species, imagined\u2026..if it is the triumph of christianity\u2026..that we take the fate of a simple black woman in the rural south to be equal in importance to the death of kings, then all that jazz is the triumph of something vaster than christianity, because christ is not there; god is not there; only death is there, and death has to carry it all, and welcome joe gideon who took pep pills and screwed around and smoked too much and never really loved anyone\u2026..the real victor was popular entertainment turned inside out to become something i can\u2019t describe\u2026\u2026popular entertainment has proven itself the master, the true artifact\u2026..a man taking a morning shower, smoking a cigarette, putting visine eyedrops in his eyes while listening to a tape of vivaldi; and our age is justified. i, who have been searching for the holy grail, tonight saw something better. i mean: i saw my lord\u2019.

for us germans this is the first happy day since 1933. we want to start counting from then on and not just from the collapse. difficult as the years of collapse were, the years 1933-1945, which saw us in terrible bondage, must not be erased from our memories. the time that lies behind us was difficult and we are only slowly beginning to take a look and take a step towards a better future. let me begin by thanking the foreign ministers of the three western powers, who, i would like to remind you once again, have made our cause their concern from washington. let me also take this opportunity to thank the military governors who, after all, looked after our interests with great care and benevolence not only in form but also in their inner conviction. let me also thank the members of the liaison staffs here in bonn who have always been available with their advice in a distinguished and, one could almost say, friendly manner. ladies and gentlemen! in the three western zones, now that economic consolidation has started, we have also made good progress in political consolidation. in my opinion, one should not always and exclusively look at the goal that has not yet been reached\u2026\u2026.' and concluding 'we have completed most of the work on the tasks that had been set for the parliamentary council, we have completed them, even if there was a discord here and there, but supported by a feeling of love and obligation to the german people. ladies and gentlemen! we wish god to bless this people and this work for the blessing of europe and the blessing of peace in the world!' \n \n \n (vi) rudolf nadolny (1873-1953) prussian military intelligence officer under german foreign office cover who served as the german ambassador to turkey 1924-33 and the soviet union 1933-34 and was also head of the german delegation at the world disarmament conference 1932-33. nadolny sought to pursue close relations between the weimar republic and the soviet union. t.l.s., nadolny , one page, oblong 8vo, rhondorf bei honnef, 13 th august 1949, to mr. [gerard] ball, in german. nadolny writes to make a request of his correspondent, explaining that he had been visited the day before by two englishmen and two germans who inspected the whole of his house and surveyed the rooms with, he believes, the intention of confiscating it for use by the english authorities, and asking that he and his wife be allowed to stay in the apartment in consideration of their ages and that they had recently carried out some repairs at considerable expense. \n \n (vii) rudolf nadolny - a second t.l.s., nadolny , one page, 4to, rhondorf bei honnef, 22 nd january 1950, to gerard ball, in german. nadolny states that it is a pity he has not seen his correspondent for so long, but is aware that he has been working deliriously, continuing 'i should like to send a copy of the attached booklet (no longer present) which i offer to you, to the well known mr. sandys, winston churchill's son-in-law, but do not know his address. could you tell me how to send it to him? the accompanying book will show how a peace with germany could look according to the rules of national law. it has been written for the case that all four occupying forces together conclude such a peace. if, however, the western allies wanted to include germany in a west-european combination, i thought that this could only be done on the basis of full equality' . \n \n an exceptional and rare grouping of documents, pivotal in the history of germany in the aftermath of world war ii. some very light coverall age wear, a few minor stains and small tears, generally vg, 7 \n \n \n in august 1945 the potsdam agreement was made between three of the allies of world war ii, the united kingdom, the united states, and the soviet union, and resulted in the military occupation and reconstruction of germany. subsequently the country was divided into four occupation zones, a french zone in the far west, a british zone in the northwest, an american zone in the south, and a soviet zone in the east. berlin was separately divided into four zones. these divisions were not intended to dismember germany, only to designate zones of administration. \n \n between 1946 and 1949, three of the occupation zones began to merge. first, the british and american zones were combined into the quasi-state of bizonia. soon afterwards, the french zone was included into trizonia. conversely, the soviet zone became east germany. in 1949 with the continuation and aggravation of the cold war the two german states that were originated in the western allied and the soviet zones became known internationally as west germany and east germany. \n \n rudolf nadolny's participation in the political negotiations at this time appear to have largely been carried out in secret. having lived in the soviet zone, nadolny was initially viewed with some suspicion by politicians in the west and according to newspaper reports he was 'used in the past by the soviet military administration for compromise offers to the west'. nevertheless, nadolny was guest of honour at a secret conference organised by andreas hermes and attended by a number of prominent politicians, industrial and economic leaders, all close friends and co-leaders in adenauer's christian democratic union. nadolny informed the gathering that germany's chief interest lay in an early withdrawal of all the occupation forces. in his view germany, if then unified and 'neutralised', could resume its former place in the european economy and play an important role as mediator between east and west. \n \n the parliamentary council agreed that a basic law should be drafted under the presidency of the cdu politician konrad adenauer, which should act as a constitution. as early as august 1948 experts had produced a draft of the basic law in a constitutional convention. the parliamentary council added the essential details. first and foremost, the immediate validity of all basic rights was ensured, as well as the guarantee of recourse to the courts. \n \n the west german constitution was approved in bonn on 8 th may 1949 and came into effect on 23 rd may after having been approved by the occupying western allies of world war ii on 12 th may. \n \n it would be over fifty years later, in 1990, that west germany and east germany jointly signed the treaty on the final settlement with respect to germany (the 'two-plus-four agreement') by which transitional status of germany following world war ii was definitively ended and the four allied powers relinquished their joint residual sovereign authority for germany."},"estimateMax":8000,"lotNumber":"1118","title":{"es":"[constitution of the federal republic of germany]: adenauer konrad (1876-1967) german statesman who ..."},"url":"https://es.bidspirit.com/ui/lotPage/iaa/source/catalog/auction/24460/lot/123176/view","tags":["escollectibles_autographs","escollectibles_booksmagazinespaper","escollectibles_all","escollectibles"],"directSalePrice":6000,"soldPrice":4500,"lastUpdate":"2026-07-01T05:15:20.070Z","textCase":"lower","estimate":"\u20ac6,000 -
