Fantasia of the Unconscious

CHAPTER VIII
10/47

Always this partial focus.

The attempt to make a child focus for a whole view--which is really a generalization and an adult abstraction--is simply wicked.

Imbecility! He has not even the faintest impression of the total hill on which his home stands.

A steepness going up to a door--and front garden railings--and perhaps windows.
That's the lot.
The top and bottom of it is, that it is a crime to teach a child anything at all, school-wise.
