On the ‘‘‘Evoluteness’’’ of the Seldonian ‘Dialectical Ideography’.
Dear Reader,
In each presentational step, s [of a ‘synchronic,
systematic-dialectical presentation’, e.g., of a present system],
or in each historical epoch, t [of a ‘diachronic, historical-dialectical
model’, e.g., of a past systems-progression], all of the earlier-evoked,
earlier presented -- or most of the historically earlier-arisen -- ontological
content that the ontological category-symbols represent, is still there, is
still present.
However, that content has also
moved off from the center of our attention -- if we are following the step-by-step
presentation, or the epoch-by-epoch historical reconstruction, of the rising
ontological level, or of the ontology [self-]expansion history, of the Domain being represented.
I.e., that earlier ontological content
has receded back from that vanguard of latest-presented/newest ontological content,
receding into the background of the ‘dialectical solution/description/analysis’
of that Domain, or, to use Hegel’s
[English-translated] language, has become “demoted”.
In Seldon’s terms, all of that
passed or past ontological content is no longer, or is less and less,
‘meta-meristemal’, after each mounting step of presentation, or after each
advancing epoch of the history, for the Domain
in question.
Seldon calls this pattern ‘“evolute”’,
because [most of] passed or past ontology remains present in each successive,
progressive present, in which new ontology is evoked, or irrupts. The opposite, ‘“convolute”’ pattern,
would see all passed or past ontological content completely displaced
and replaced by the latest/newest ontological
content, with each next step of presentation, or with each new epoch of
historical reconstruction.
