eschaton? What's that?

Haven't you ever heard of "the immanentization of the eschaton"?:)(Robert
Anton Wilson opens Illuminatus with "It was the year we finally immanentized
the eschaton".) I think it was Voeglin who introduced this term to academe.
It's the thing that eschatology is knowledge about ie the "last things" or
"end of the world" in both senses of "end". Steve Davies
