Percy-L: Literary, Religious, Scientific, and Philosophical Discussion of Walker Percy

["Karey L. Perkins" <karey AT charter.net>]

No -- I'm certainly no moderator!  But I am fascinated by the fact that gays and Biblical authority have garnered so much response, but Percy's language theory doesn't get much interest?  There's so much he left unfinished and so much to investigate.  If he had lived longer, I think something tremendous might have come out of it -- like, the answer to, what is the interpretant?  He died before he could solve it.

 

So, here's what I would discuss if I had the choice...

 

What is the interpretant?

 

Why did he use triangles instead of triads, even when a good argument was given against it?

 

What did Susanne Langer drop that he picked up?  (I believe he says what it is in one place, but I lost it somewhere)

Hmmm...

Because some of my replies that contradict Karey are not showing up in my
inbox, I assumed (wrongly it seems) that I had angered her (isn't she the
moderator?), and that she was preventing my postings from going to the list.


I owe you an all an apology...but especially Karey.

Please forgive my presumption.

I'm an ass.

Steve,
Why are we getting triplicates of your posting??
