- W338551475 abstract "changes which general semantics training designed to bring about are not so much a matter of absorbing intellectual subject-matter as of gaining a new orientation, a of evaluation, a new way of using language. --Frances Chisholm (1945, p. 1) Alfred Korzybski Alfred Korzybski first published his formulations about time-binding, or makes humans (Kodish & Kodish, 2011, P. 203) in Manhood of Humanity in 1921. According to Korzybski (2000), time-binding was human capacity to share experiences with others. He hoped that this ability to pass our learning onto others would allow generation [to] begin where former left off (Korzybski, p. xxxii). Experiencing firsthand carnage of World War I, he often questioned how humans had progressed so far and so rapidly in fields such as engineering, mathematics, and sciences, and yet sociologically [we] still were fighting wars and killing each (Stockdale, 2009, p. 35). He was determined to finding better ways for humans to communicate. Korzybski (2000) believed that a scientific orientation toward language--questioning accuracy of choices--would help us become more effective communicators. He advocated for daily use of scientific method because of potential for new discoveries: The structural revision of [scientists] led automatically to new results and new suggestions (Korzybski, p. 10). Similarly, as a mathematician, Korzybski (2000) believed that cardinal and ordinal aspects of numbers provided an ideal human relational of structure similar to that of world and to that of human nervous system (p. 259). Consequently, if humans operate from a mathematical orientation, they recognize that as one variable changes in nature, so does other: mathematical notation, a function express: = f (x), and read y equals (f) or function of or y depends on x, or the value of as value of x varies (Pula, 2000, p. 67). Korzybski (2000) advocated for both a scientific and mathematical orientation toward language, so that human behaviors accurately reflect changing nature of empirical world. In addition, Korzybski (2000) proposed a map-territory analogy to encourage more exploration of our verbal (words), noting that these maps do not accurately describe what happening in (empirical world): A map not it represents (p. 58). He used a familiar relationship, maps and territories, so that we would remember when (reality) changes, we need to update map (language). More recently, Anton (n.d.) proposed that we are better served with premise, there no not territory (p. 11), because (reality) consists of many maps. He argued, Once we recognize how all maps, as part of territory, are means by which one part selectively releases and appropriates another part at different levels of abstraction, we no longer need to postulate that 'reality' lies somehow 'behind' and/or 'beyond' our experiences and/or language (Anton, p. 11-12). In his second book, Science and Sanity, published in 1933, Korzybski (2000) proposed his formulations as a that promoted a complete and conscious elimination of identification (p. xcvii). For Korzybski, a non-Aristotelian orientation meant illuminating limitations of Aristotle's law of or is of identity (Pula, 2000, p. 21-22). He argued that even though people, places, and things have specific characteristics, which Aristotle labeled as identity, these characteristics are constantly changing and are incomplete representations of empirical world. For example, I am a professor, but if that all you say about me then you are leaving out other important roles in my life--friend, wife, counselor, mother, church member, sister, and many more. …" @default.
