Prague in 1920s

Prague in 1920s

​From Print 2012, Chapter 18

Non-symmetry. It was the very theme that I repeatedly talked on with C. Prague in 1920s. Karcevskij's paper "Du dualisme asymetrique du signe linguistique" that appeared in the magazine TCLP.  Absolutely contradicted coexistence between flexibility and solidity, which language keeps on maintaining, by which language continues existing as language.  Still now there will exist the everlasting dual contradiction in language. Why can
language stay in such solid and such flexible condition like that. Karcevskij proposed the duality that is seemed to be almost absolute contradiction.
Sergej Karcevskij's best of papers, for whom C called as the only genius in his last years' book Janua Linguisticae reserata 1994.

Heritage of The Linguistic Circle of Prague in 1920s

The LCP showed us the eternal flexibility of language, which has overcame the vast trial approach to language and its bases and language universals.  The LCP had never persisted one theory or the main stream theories at that time.  I have inherited this noble spirit on my study.

The LCP had never persisted one theory or the main stream theories at that time.  My teacher in life CHINO Eiichi had emphasized at the room on Constructive Linguistics in 1980s.

Sekinan Comment

[Note 2 added]

From the scholar C who appears in this tale, I learned a great deal on linguistics, especially on the Linguistic Circle of Prague.
He had taught me almost all the themes on language at the lecture room and the way back to the station going down this dear stone steps.
He passed away in 2002 age 70.
