Learning in the double bind
mnemotextual inquiries and action knowledges
pp. 91-130
Plato's legacy continues to persist in discussions concerning the relation between art/literature and philosophy. This chapter examines whether such a legacy or the modern rearticulation of it in German thought is of any relevance in the context of centuries long Sanskrit "literary inquiries." While exploring the mnemotexts of Sanskrit traditions, this chapter focuses on the work of Rajasekhara and other Lakshanikas. Derrida's historical-theoretical conceptions of the literary are probed further in this context.
