from Study Session 1 on “Experiential Processes and the Creation of Meaning
In some cases, symbols that are not symbols of “one felt meaning” facilitate understanding
- However, there are cases where symbols that are not symbolic of that “one felt meaning” promote understanding
- So here’s what I mean.
-
I thought that this “understanding” uses UNDERSTAND, which is different from the COMPREHENSION translation of “understanding”…
- Relevance is “that kind of related felt meaning whereby the symbolization is thereby made intelligible.”
-
relevant felt meanings, from out of which symbolization is understandable
-
- Here’s what they say in everyday conversation
-
To understand, we need “past experience”.
-
” context” must be understood
This is different from COMPREHENSION.
- What does UNDERSTAND mean here?
-
-
A set of symbols comes to be understood with the help of many other experienced meanings, not just the one felt meaning they represent (p. 158).
- This “understanding” is UNDERSTOOD
