Interesting Thought!

I can entirely relate with your comment about "stylish to the point of overdone" - as it is sometimes difficult to relate with baroque music / art due to the degree of ornamentation--a stylistic convention of that day which does not so easily translate into modern conventions. This conventional characteristic manifests ubiquitously, and when we compare our generation with that of the former era - we seem stripped bare. Philosophical thought amidst these differing eras mirrors this comparative notion as well. Interesting thought!
