Lieibniz discovered I Ching/binary isomorphism as soon as
first European edition of I Ching appeared
If I Ching and internet are isomorphic, and some people suspect
them both of thinking, then human neurology, also
binary, may also think....? |

Kontos -- i don't know why but the isomorphism seems real to me.
See next week's assignment
Bogusmagus -- i discovered all those errors [except one] as soon as the book appeared...
can't correct 'em until the second printing
Thanks for the heads-up about the furlined tea-cup. i never suspected
myself of infallibiity anyway. |

Pound's hell, purgatory, heaven
based on Dante's note that these
represent states, not places
hell -- state of those ruled by passion & obsession
purgatory -- state of those achieving or attempting balance/objectivity
heaven -- state of those who achieve union by love |

Tindall gives page by page commentary, not line by line, but
seems excellent to me -- witty and very helpful
Roland McHugh ANNOATIONS TO FINNEGANS WAKE line by line
and great, but one needs Tindall first to get oriented
THE PLOT SUMMARY presents an oiginal thesis which
I find kooky |

The original begins
"My credo is....."
If Pound cut nothing, he'd lose the effect of fragments/luminous details/ideograms
If he cut more and gave us 'Despotism or absolute power' etc
he's also lose that effect
As fer the idea, I agree with Adams and Ez
-- without a limiting constitution, democracy can
become as bad as any other despotism.
See recent history of U.S. & total
rejection of Bill of Rights |

50 years to the very hour after the Declaration was signed,
some say.
John's last words:
"Jefferson still survives."
He got that wrong -- no internet. |
