It was nominated for the 1964 Hugo Award for Short Fiction. ref http www.locusmag.com SFAwards Db Hugo1964.html The LOCUS Index to SF Awards ref Plot summary The story is narrated by a gifted human linguist and poet named Gallinger, who is part of a mission studying Mars . He becomes the first human to learn the high language of the intelligent Martians, and to be allowed to read their sacred texts. He comes to believe that Martian culture is essentially fatalism fatalistic , following an event in the distant past that left the long lived Martians sterile. The Martian high priestess regards Gallinger highly, and over the course of months, his theological and poetical discussion elevate him to a status something like a prophet . Ultimately, he is seduced by a Martian temple dancer and impregnates her, the first such pregnancy on the planet in hundreds of years. The Martians appear not to take this well, as it contradicts their religion s expectation of extinction. In anger at Martian religious fatalism and impassioned by his love for the dancer and his child to be, Gallinger breaks into the temple during a closed service and reads to the Martians from the Biblical book of Ecclesiastes , which he finds thematically similar to their religious texts. He mocks it as he reads it, stating bquote he was right It is vanity it is pride It is the hubris of rationalism to always attack the prophet, the mystic, the god. It is our blasphemy which has made us great, and will sustain us, and which the gods secretly admire in us. All the truly sacred names of God are blasphe ... more details
Theological determinism is a form of determinism which states that all events that happen are pre ordained, or predestination predestined to happen, by a monotheism monotheistic God . Theological determinism exists in a number of religions, including Judaism , Christianity and Islam . Hard and soft theological determinism Two forms of theological determinism exist. The first one accepts that humans have free will to choose their actions, holding that God, whilst omniscience knowing their actions before they happen , does not affect the outcome. The other form, known as Hard Theological Determinism , holds that free will does not exist, and God has absolute control over a person s actions. The most prominent theologian espousing this latter view was John Calvin , a late mediaeval French Christianity Christian who was the main influence behind Calvinism , a form of Protestantism . Opposition from theologians Many other Christians have opposed this view. Saint Thomas Aquinas , the medieval Roman Catholicism Roman Catholic theologian, believed strongly that humanity had free will, saying that man chooses not of necessity but freely . The Jesuits were among the leading opponents of this view, because they held that divine Grace Christianity grace was actual, in the sense that grace is among other things participative, and that humans could freely benefit from grace by a mediation between their own imperfect wills and the infinite mercy of God.

Platonism Hierocles of Alexandria was a Greece Greek Neoplatonist writer who was active around AD 430. He studied under Plutarch of Athens Plutarch the Neoplatonist at Athens in the early 5th century, and taught for some years in his native city. He seems to have been banished from Alexandria and to have taken up his abode in Constantinople , where he gave such offence that he was thrown into prison and cruelly flogged. The causes of this are not recorded it is mere speculation that he was flogged for being a pagan. The only complete work of his which has been preserved is the commentary on the Golden verses of Pythagoras Chrysa Epe Golden Verses of Pythagoras . It enjoyed a great reputation in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance , and there are numerous translations in various European languages. Several other writings, especially one on providence and fate, a consolatory treatise dedicated to his patron Olympiodorus of Thebes , are quoted or referred to by Photios I of Constantinople Photius and Stobaeus . Hierocles argued against astrological fatalism on the basis that it is supported by an irrational necessity rather than a divine, rational Providence of God. For the same reason, he opposed theurgic and magic practices as they were attempts to supersede the divine providential order http www.iep.utm.edu a astr hel.htm SH7e . Although he never mentions Christianity in his surviving works, his writings have been taken as an attempt at reconciliation between Greek religion traditions and the Christian beliefs he may have encountered in Constantinople http www.ccel.org w wace biodict htm iii.viii.xxvi.htm . The collection of some 260 witticisms attributed to Hierocles and Philagrius has no connection with Hierocles of Alexandria, but is probably a compilation of later date, founded on two older collections.

The Superfluous Man lang ru is a 19th century Russia n literary concept. ref name c1 Harvnb Chances 2001 p 111 ref It relates to an individual, possibly of talent and capability, who does not fit into the state centered pattern of employment. Often the individual is born into the upper class and is rich and affluent. He may pursue a military career and can often be seen as a nihilism nihilist or fatalism fatalist . This is supported by the fact that superfluous men participate in duels and risk seeking behavior, such as gambling. Their actions can be attributed to their self destructive nature and their disregard for the social values and standards of the time. The consequence is a character bored with life, cynical and withdrawn, often causing distress to whatever occupies his attention, which is often women. Scholar David Patterson characterises the superfluous man as not just...another literary type but as a paradigm of a person who has lost a point, a place, a presence in life , concluding that the superfluous man is a homeless man . ref Harvnb Patterson 1995 p 2 ref The term was popularized by Ivan Turgenev s novella The Diary of a Superfluous Man 1850 and was thereafter retroactively applied to characters from novels of the earlier part of the nineteenth century. ref name c1 This character type originates out of Lord Byron s Childe Harold s Pilgrimage , which inspired Alexander Pushkin to write his novel in verse Eugene Onegin .
