Where do we find ourselves? in a series of which we do not know the extremes, and believe that it has none. We wake and find ourselves on a stair; there are stairs below us, which we seem to have ascended; there are stairs above us, many a one, which go upward and out of sight.
—Ralph Waldo Emerson, Experience
A text is not a text unless it hides from the first comer, from the first glance, the law of its composition and the rules of its game.
