Immediacy and Meaning seeks to approach the odd uneasiness at root
in all metaphysical meaning; that the human knower attempts to
mediate what cannot be mediated; that there is a pre-cognitive
immemorial immediacy to Being that renders its participants
irreducible, incommunicable and personal. The dilemma of
metaphysics rests on the relationship between the spectator and the
player, both as essential responses to the immediacy of Being.
Immediacy and Meaning is an attempt to pause, but without retreat,
to be a spectator within the game, to gain access into this
immediate Presence, for a moment only perhaps, before the signatory
failure into metaphysical language returns us to the mediated. J.
K. Huysman's semi-autobiographical tetralogy anchors this book as a
meditation, neither purely poetic nor only philosophical; it claims
a unique territory when attempting to speak what cannot be spoken.
The unnerving merits of nominalism, the difficulties of an honest
appraisal of efficacious prayer, the mad sanity of the muse, the
relationship between the uncreated and the created, and an
originary ethics of antagonism, each serves to clarify the
formation of a new epistemology.
