If you’re like me, you missed not getting Jack’s notes in time to read them before today’s class. Â (Although they’re there now, after the site was down for the previous two days).
One of the themes in Jack’s notes for this week is that–taking off from a remark by Hayward in last Sunday’s class about “me” and referring to TSK exercise 30 (Reversal of Self and Object)–we can explore the relationship of self and world by considering that when we speak of “me” we are making ourselves the object of a relationship.
I like the phrase “if you’re like me” because it not only makes me the object of another subject, but it invokes a community and a field in which a wider perspective is invoked than that of a self who is polarized with his world.
