Now I am Enough Old for Remembering the Past

Recently I read Susan Sontag's WHERE THE STRESS FALLS, 2001. The impression is a little different with the other books. 
I was never the good reader of her, but her existence was always strong and had glittered. 
The time was Sixties that contained the infinite things in it. 
Now I am enough old for remembering the time. 
She wrote a fine essay on the time, Thirty Years Later ... , 1996. The pages are short but sufficient to describe the time that was infinite and endless.
 If her life was able to be shine, while my Sixties was always under the tiny dim light. 
At the place where I was, the long view never could be seen. I never thought on the things as I was very coward and was fluttered even at the very tiny event of the time. I was infirm and timidity.
What I could do at that time was read or turned pages of the text books of some foreign languages. 
How little and shallow heart I had, pitiable and poor existence. Probably till now.

Time in Word

 

TANAKA Akio

Time inherent in word has been one of the most fantastic theme for me for a long period. WANG Guowei’s paper was strongly hinted to the theme towards first writing a trial paper on it. Roman Jakobson was also gave me the basic notion related with the theme. Still now the problem has not solved as the starting point. But being aided by mathematical method and description,  learning on it has become more attractive in these days.

[Note]When I wrote this essay, "Time in Word" in the autumn of 2013, the relation between time and dimension cannot be thought clearly but now in 2014 I distinctly think that the relation exists at the situation of synthesis of the new meaning on the old meaning. The four papers of Arithmetic Geometry Language written between 4 September 2013 and 9 September 2013 are indicating the affinity with time and dimension. Now I show the compact paper in the four, titled " Synthesis Meaning and Transition of Dimension".

Four papers of Arithmetic Geometry Language are the following.Arithmetic Geometry Language (Abbreviated AGL)
