(1954) "Experentialism" was always unlikely to slip through the net with your needle sharp eyes so used to unthreading the tapestry of my woes, Johanna. It was a forlorn attempt to minimise the dreadful ego without losing contact with the mush of convention; wherever possible, that dread word that centres in sIn and prIde and happIness and anxIety and guIlt and so forth is made InvIsIble. It shall be edIted and hopefully you are made content by the restoration of perfect order in the linguistic universe. I knew you were able to satisfy my eye, dear. Thank you. I indeed like the Is in experientialism. Being conspicuously absent in a written representation of this word, does not at all concern their existence. It's the thought of I why I is. "Das Nichts nichtet" (the void voids) - this saying seems to be one of Heidegger's graver errors. As Parmenides said, "thought and being are the same. Being is, but nothing is not." So nothing can not annihilate something existent. It's, whereas, the Being by which nothing is kept in nothingness. And that goes even for the drab monotony of our everyday life, missing or adscititious Is inclusively. Antiquis temporibus, nati tibi similes in rupibus ventosissimis exponebantur ad necem. For which my thanks to Bluephoenix4. I thank you, sweetiepie, for your comment, though sometimes I fear that you have been too well taught. Nevertheless. A further (rhetorical) basis for my attempts at smuggling words in that appear to the uninitiated as mispelt is a general one that conflates with the intertexted banishment of the ego, subtle as this was except to your (extremely well trained) eye: that is the generalised revitalisation of a word from the swamp of general usage, an invigoration of the problematic concealed in its mere conventional corpse, by barely perceptible mutation of its elements. ... Gaudeo capedictum tuum non desitum esse. Exposita essem, ais, "in rupibus ventosissimis". I know. In my former life, they called me Lorelay. They say, I caused many a conceited skipper's hooker to split on my innocent rock. Je ne regrette rien, wie wir Franken sagen. abailart said:I see, dear. Banishing the Ego by using the Ego-I restrictively; that sounds intelligible. The remaining Me -- now set free from the observations of the I -- is enabled then to expermeence metself as a model of post-modern deconstructionism: getting rid of the culture-historical, socio-economic flotsam ... O me miserum <How to conceive what is outside a text? That which is more or less than a text's own, proper margin? For example, what is other than the text of Western metaphysics? It is certain that the trace which "quickly vanishes in the destiny of Being (and) which unfolds . . . as Western metaphysics" escapes every determination, every name it might receive in the metaphysical text. It is sheltered, and therefor dissimulated, in these names. It does not appear in them as the trace "itself." But this is because it never appear itself, as such. Heidegger also says that difference cannot appear as such: "Lichtung des Unterschiedes kann deshalb auch nicht bedeuten, dass der Unterschied al... You two have lost me but I have another question. Is that "experientialism" website a satire on the philosophies. It sure seems like a lot of effort to parody dozens of established collections of philosophical thought and writing. (Oh yeah. The thought doesn't exist anyway.) Am I getting it? If it's for real, what I saw of it is a fetid load. I honestly wouldn't concern myself. If it took longer than to finish a cup of coffee I wouldn't do it. |
