Dhu,
Pretty good summary.
So even Shakepeare's works are repelete with the parody.

The revelation for us is that western normatizing is always at a grosser level.
The 'code' is written in at the formative moment of "creation"; heathenish learning is not possible in such a situation, only revelation, the unveiling of the "true meaning".
Even their 'narratives' are not for learning, but for "figuring out" the (true) meaning.
That is they even have normative narratives.
No communication, much less exchange, is possible in such a situation; only invective. When the invective is not clear, symbology is assumed; the vast majorty of their "commons" flounder their entire lives in this symbology.
The elite are the "privy"
Alienation when it happens in the normatized is the path to the privyhood.
That is, the path to the elite, to surety, to universality itself, is alienation.
This alienation can either lead towards the secular (which is the grosser) or towards the religious (which is the higher)
Normativity is strengthened when the code is revealed, for it is a vindication of the reality and therefore of the universality of the code.
Even when the code is revealed to be the grosser level, the code dynamic is taken as a universal truth.
From such a dynamic, no appreciation of an alhernate heathen reality is possible.
Universality of codes is strengthened by revelation of the code
Now watch as they transform Kalidas as the Shake-Spear of the East.
Perhaps Kalidas was abusing Krishna, or perhaps even Buddha.
