Nietzsche, 1888: "It is not the victory of science that marks this nineteenth century of ours, but the victory of method over science."
Method: also the early modern English Christians smuggling prayer manuals printed by hidden presses in the shires among the endlessly sermonized parishioners of the established church. A substitution of a private and personal domination for a political domination.
Which then perhaps recursively appeared in the public space.
