Re: What Calls for Thinking

Thomson,

There's nothing exceptionable here:(to summarize):
Ethos is comportment, or character (Ajax or Achilles);
logos, speech/reason (Odysseus' dialectical skill);
and mythos, worldview (the circumambient Gods/agencies,
benign and malignant, which bear irresistably upon man's existence,
Night and Day, winter/summer, birth/deaht, etc).

But, neither is there anything unconventional. Isn't this
philology or anthropology?...etymologies?
...simply by naming language "the house of being", has he
magically rendered it other than "ontical"?
Isn't H equivocating ontological primordiality and the
chronologically primitive?
