User:VGriff/9k/blazon creature, meta-philosophical (Q618)

Main entry

fantasy creature associated with specific view of reality / blazon animal associated with specific view of reality -> The motif of a fantasy creature or mythologised real-world "earth" animal that represents a very specific way of viewing reality or history.

Dragons are inherently historical / Because dragons are associated with either battles, adventures, or danger, they are inherently connected to the concept of historical events, in the form of horizontal conflicts between individuals or kingdoms; as an overall body of people becomes more receptive to anti-war sentiment, dragons which were originally framed as monsters become framed as neutral or friendly
Unicorns are inherently ahistorical / Because unicorns are associated with imagining the unseen in lieu of being able to investigate it, they are inherently connected to the concepts of Idealism and I-believe-that-everybody statements -> "unarchronism". I like your thinking.
