 This is the narrative of this book, a romance in its own right, the story of how the myths of unity and disintegration have been variously translated into the forms we see in the digital age. Ancient myths of a transcendent reality of the whole and the parts caught in a cosmic antagonism have been transformed through Neoplatonism, rationalism, romanticism, and the technologies of an age enamored with the primacy of information. I will also show that this grand romance, this story of transformation, implicates the adherents of "commonsense" empiricism as much as the extreme devotees of new age technoromanticism. No one is entirely immune from the romantic legacy. This is the narrative of this book, a romance in its own right, the story of how the myths of unity and disintegration have been variously translated into the forms we see in the digital age.
