Capital, n. a Republican Crown

CAPITAL, n. A republican crown. Seen in this way, the lost CAPITAL is an envoy: a parody of the now solely burlesque treatment of history in this post-modernism and, as a consequence, a double negation as well, yet without the desirable positive change in values, at least from the perspective of making use of history.

Gerd Neumann, Callimachus 1981
