Pivoting back onto the subject is called for by the dual nature of experience, and while here this occurs in the mode of a knowing and hence of a question, and again in a passive and aesthetic mode, in other cases apparently, and perhaps more commonly, it does so in terms of a doing and therefore in ethical terms. in a sort of political imperative. Each is emphatically an 'ownmost'. In so far as these represent fundamental attitudes they are deeply at odds. Each is a jealous principle that will brook no rival. Each seeks to devour the other. Reconciliation is impossible, but perhaps a sort of alchemy.
