The light side represents an ideal order in religion and myths, while the dark side represents the wild, overgrown infinity that hides beyond the limits of order. The polarity between the light and the dark is reflected in the conflict between the ideals of classicism and Gothicism.The Classical ideals are founded on clarity, reason, light and rules.
