Just because I would, and do, toe the line, doesn't mean I was happy about, nor ignorant of, my unhappiness. But I wouldn't say I was enlightened, either. Passive aggression and avoidance were the best I could do.Nevertheless, this doesn't disqualify the question: | Save The Phenomena
"OUR AGE is retrospective. It builds the sepulchres of the fathers. It writes biographies, histories, and criticism. The foregoing generations beheld God and nature face to face; we, through their eyes."| Save The Phenomena
A recent Call For Papers on 'the double' crystallized my intent to research and report on a topic I've thought about lots in the last few years.Here is my reading list, such as it is. Most of these will be re-reads, but with the focus on the double.| Save The Phenomena

In her "Translator's Introduction" and "Notes on the Translation", Sarah Richmond preps her readers with what is absolutely required, given that the only other English translation of Being and Nothingness: An Essay on Phenomenological Ontology, by Jean-Paul Sartre, is 70 or so years old, and it's the only other English translation: where are today's intellectuals with Being and Nothingness, and just what, if anything, is new about her translation?| Save The Phenomena

This is the tip of an iceberg, and moves about as fast. But just recently, the pace picked up on my work on how Owen Barfield and JRR Tolkien achieved what appear to be experiences of other consciousnesses.With Tolkien, this meant *reality, the world experienced in the extrapolation or re- [or sub-] creation of the language just at the threshold of the oldest extant written records. For Barfield, this lined up roughly with a stage of human consciousness he called original participation.| Save The Phenomena
Owen Barfield and JRR Tolkien both claimed explicitly, and otherwise assumed the truth of the claim, that they had, each and individually, broken through a veil between ordinary waking consciousness and the authoring consciousness of whatever ancient or foreign text they were reading.| Save The Phenomena
"In our ordinary mental lives, thinking is almost always mixed with other activities, such as perceiving, feeling, willing, and so on. These other activities originate in the body. But thinking plays into them. And, to the extent that it plays into them, something occurs in and through us in which the body has no part.| Save The Phenomena

"When a lady complained to Whistler that she did not see the world he painted, he is said to have replied: 'No, ma'am, but don't you wish you could?'"Owen Barfield, Saving the Appearances| Save The Phenomena
"Our physical body and our generative powers relate to the physical world; with the astral body and the ego we enter a totally different world every night, and initially this has extraordinarily little to do with the world in which we are awake during the day. The two worlds really only work together in so far as they are brought together in the human realm."| Save The Phenomena
