Edwin Schlossberg

For my father

'We learn to read and then single letters and words become habitual to the extent that we see them in their context and not as separate things. When we forget ourselves as a word we exist more fully as our entire context.'
(p.162.83)

The most interesting writing on 'environment' that I've read, and the best introduction to the thought of Edwin Schlossberg in which distinctions between self and other entities are replaced by a wider awareness that is itself 'the environment', or everything.
