The Crux
Gerard Manley Hopkins called John Duns Scotus the rarest-veinèd unraveller of realty (sic). But unravelling and ravelling call for unravelling in order to lay bare that their meanings turn on the crucial antagonymy that throughout this book will be named chiasmus or chiasm. Another example of such crossover is a certain middle-voiced relation of activity and passivity which, subsequent chapters will show, meshes with the relation between intention and attention in which the latter is seen to have at least as much importance as its less neglected partner, phenomenological or quasi-phenomenological intentionality.
