Herculean times
symbol for your consideration: A sculptor at his work.
Keynote: The ability to project one's vision upon and to give form to materials.
At this stage we see the individual creatively expressing his own particular individuality. He takes the materials available in his social-geographical environment and shapes them so they reveal to other people something of his inner life and purpose.
As opposed to the "flag bearer" which symbolized the selfless representative of a collective tradition or of national unity, the "sculptor" represents man as a creative individual intent on making his mark upon society. This is a symbol of man's capacity to transform raw materials according to his personal vision — thus a symbol of SELF-PROJECTION INTO A WORK.
