The German philosopher and historian Oswald Spengler, author of the Untergang des Abendlandes and admirer of Nietzsche and Goethe proclaims the latter´s character Faust to be the archetypal figure of our very own civilisation.
Very nice article. Informative and well written. Sometimes though, it reads as if the inserted quotes don't really fit into the sentence.
For example:
"In Fëanor is also embodied a revolutionary orator, a demagogue, who gather the Noldor with torches and convinces them to leave <<Fëanor was a master of words, and his tongue had great power over hearts when he would use it; and that night he made a speech before the Noldor which they ever remembered. Fierce and few were his words, and filled with anger and pride; and hearing them the Noldor were stirred to madness.>>"
Just wanted to let you know, perhaps my English just isn't that great. Still, very nice article, I enjoy all your work.

Indeed, thanks for pointing out! Especially in this article, it appears that there was room for making the inclusion of the quotes more smooth
