(303) The vision of thought.
- What is it to see a thought.
- To see a thought coming.
- The thought at emergence.
Objective one is to explore what manifests a thought.
Objective two is explore the connection between concept and text.
Theoria: The idea, that allows itself to be seen as an image (eidos),
- and the soul is what apprehends it.
- The idea is visible because it comes from somewhere else to improve itself on the mind.
(304) There is an eye at the edge of discourse.
- It is the eye of discourse itself.
- An optical arrangement that language brings up to its edge through its structure.
- Language opens referentiality.
(305) Language renders itself both as discourse and figure, and
- how it unfolds in linguistic and figural space.
There is a distortion between thought and form
- There is neither speculation nor reflection between the two.
- However, the mirroring is breach of reflexivity.
- Between the seen and the seeing.
(307) The stare of the idea is a gazing,
- and a fixing
- By the the one who is thinking on it.
(309) To see a thought can be analogy to the figuration of a secret.
- A secret is something separate, withdrawn or hidden from sight.
- The eye gives secret form.
- Derrida suggested writers are carried forward by the secret of their own work.
**** The idea that the secret already is present, but not seen
- Contained in the superego, but not present.
- Until we see through the mirror of thought.
- Once seen, the secret is interpreted by seeing, and then by language.
- The secret is revealed as an other, the superego.
The unknown is present, but it is not seen.
(310) Discourse allows the mind to be outside of itself,
- to see itself, and to see inner secrets.
- It allows us to ponder and consider alternate interpretations.
- Language allows us to share inner secrets with others.
