Abstract

[Anation’s administration of justice is the product of its landscape, as is its entire state structure along with its customs, thought processes, and speech patterns. So, according to the ancient chronicle The Saxon Mirror, 1 a watchdog may be publicly brought to trial if it failed to announce by its appropriate barking the thieves approaching a remote farmhouse; this dog is then executed after due process, the questioning of witnesses, and the pleas of the prosecution and the defense. That is as closely connected to this haunted landscape north of the Limes Romanus and its multifarious functions, as is the fact that it was the mathematics of the north that first ventured forth from the still comprehensible function of “a-to-the-third-power” to begin calculating with the inconceivable and irrational function of “a-to-the-fourth-power.”]
