Of course, I'd add that "literal symbolic patterns" are the
S/O illusion. All symbolic patterns are metaphorical.
Matt:
Are you sure?
If all symbolic patterns are metaphorical, then why didn't
you include physics, linguistics, and biology as things that
can approach DQ?
If one half of a dichotomy (literal/metaphorical) is an illusion
(literal), that's usually a good time to--after debunking the
illusion--find a new way to describe the distinction you still
wish to use.
Implicit in your delineation of metaphorical symbolic patterns
is a new definition of literal--how might it be framed to
capture the other weighted side of the see-saw from what
appears to be, loosely, art?
What's this distinction between "definition" and "approach,"
only the latter of which can help us with DQ? Or, to put it
another way, if all symbolic patterns are metaphorical, then
what kind of metaphorical pattern is "definition"?
Matt
