Citationality
- Citationality, in literary criticism, is an author's citation (quoting) of other author's works. Some works are highly citational (making frequent use of numerous allusion to and quotations from other works), while others seem to exist in a vacuum, without explicit references to other authors or texts. Some writers, such as the Argentine Jorge Luis Borges, are highly citational (Borges frequently included citations and footnotes in his stories, many of which were entirely made up). Citationality is often seen as a typical feature of postmodernism, especially in its pop culture manifestations (consider how frequently a television show such as The Simpsons or Mystery Science Theater 3000 makes use of quotes and citations).
Soft systems methodology
- Enter situation considered problematical
- Express the problem situation
- Formulate root definitions of relevant systems of purposeful activity
- Build conceptual models of the systems named in the root definitions
- Comparing models with real world situations
- Define possible changes which are both possible and feasible
- Take action to improve the problem situation
Aphorism
- Literally, the context is everything; there is nothing without. [1] More precisely, it is a web of things in association, not in isolation. For instance, the hypertext is a web of texts in (especially clickable, if you insist) association, hence a context. Such are the mind map, concept map, mental model, and the like counting some twenty, as listed in 1975#Peter Russell. Such is also the situation or state of affairs in association. The content (as in word) and concept (as in mind) may act as a context in the narrow sense. The more or less synonymous include whole, holarchy, system, structure, scaffolding, schema, scenario, narrative, plot, design, organization, world, affordance, expectation, prospect, integrity, thick description, thick (of thing), universe (of discourse), society (of mind), frame (of reference), framework, model, map, web, network, matrix, tapestry, background, environment, milieu, surroundings, interaction, implication, connotation, convention, consilience, constitution, constraints, construction, configuration, conjunction, connection, correlation, composition, etc.
