Re: Another Subjective Experience thread (for PTB)
(1) Have you ever read Proust? [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
(2) The point is not whether language is quite precise enough to really do justice to "inexpressible experiences." The point is that, if there IS some form of experience that defies identification by cognitive linguistic structures: that experience could not be expressed.
It's really a tautology, if you think about it...an "inexpressible experience" is impossible.
Gotta run, hope to give you a better response later; I'm sure you have further thoughts.
