126. The impression is one thing and the impression’s being determinate
is another thing. The impression of familiarity is perhaps the characteristics
of the determinacy that every strong impression has.
yes an impression – an effect – in the absence of description – is
unknown
any ‘determination’ of an impression is descriptive
and any description is open to question – open to doubt – is uncertain –
familiarity –
to be familiar – is to operate in a propositional context that one is used to –
familiarity is an affect of propositional use –
it is non-critical propositional behaviour
you are familiar with a situation to the extent that you don’t question
– that you don’t doubt – that you don’t recognize or ordeal with its
uncertainty
familiarity is prefaced on acceptance –
its basis is in pragmatism – not logic
