Cliche to Archetype

"Many people confuse single objects as symbols. It helps to know the original meaning and structure of the term "symbol" as a juxtaposition of two things.  Originally, parties to a contract broke a stick and each took a half. Upon completion of the relationship, the parties juxtaposed the two sticks, creating the symbol. It is from symballein, Greek for "throwing together".


A kettle is not a symbol unless related or juxtaposed with stove, or pot, or food...."

In any war the foe studies the resources and characteristics of his attacker as earnestly as the attacker tries to understand the foe in depth. The generals and their staffs discuss and meditate on every aspect of the enemies’ psychology, studying their cultural histories and resources and technologies, so that today war, as it were, has become the little red schoolhouse of the global village. It’s a gory little schoolhouse at that.
