Sentences from Pirsig's book, Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance, were converted into a questionnaire form and analysed with scales derived from Reich's book Greening of America and scales indexing Apollonian and Dionysian value orientations. The resulting structures were discussed in terms of polarity of Western ideological thought and Russell's theory pertaining to dynamics of historical trends. This study illustrates extension of psychohistorical techniques (Ammons, 1978) by inclusion of results from use of objectively developed scales to measure values and attitudes
