The Manifold Function of Singular Words
In my discussion of this elegantly written, notably useful, and engagingly illustrated paper, I bring attention to Eugene Gendlin’s work on the Focusing process that connects words to a felt bodily referent; Donnel Stern’s contributions to our understanding of the articulation of unformulated experience; and Barbara Pizer’s key concept of “Body Words.” I invoke Hans Loewald’s valuable metaphor of a manifold: a connector that separates and a separ…
