it must be understood any theory of language
comes from within
it is language within language about language
what is this?
how can it be that - a theory of language is about language?
to be blunt
it's makes no sense to suggest language can define itself
language - is space
you can use regions to identify regions
you can create a perspective to look at a particular domain -
and this domain you have to first define - separate out -
one way of looking at it is to say we operate with many
languages -
what is the relationship between these languages?
is there an hierarchical relationship from natural to
abstract - different levels - different languages?
or perhaps
simply language -
different regions different populations?
or indeed
language - forever being made (remade)
with no overriding logic
but that which we imagine from the inside
language as - indefinable -
but this needs to be looked at
reflection never leaves language
never looks at - from the outside
it posits the object - (in this case) language -
from the inside -
imagines if you like - looking from the outside -
this is - though - strictly speaking - pretending
the impossible
except for this -
we do it
we must understand it as a fact of consciousness
consciousness - quite simply creates - objectivity -
within itself
this is all objectivity is
- the fact of reflection
realities follow
and yes - you say - on what do you base this on?
reflection?
indeed
beyond reflection?
outside reflection -
nothing to be known
end of discourse
go back
you begin at the beginning at the absence of -
the suspension of - thought
the world begins
with the next thought
always we are between the world and its absence
thought is our continuous creation
