Abstract

This number of the continuing series is extremely rich and quite densely written. Much of the writing is reminiscent of Modes of Being in its formality. The major concern is togetherness as a human product, especially political organization. Fully one half of the fascicle is devoted to an extensive and very intricate analysis of the state. Two other sections demand attention: one short and pointed comment on possible kinds of approach to the art object, and a lengthy statement of an "urphilosophy" for Modes of Being, giving the basic positions and moves which can be applied analogously to each of the four modes.—W.
