Description
INTRODUCTION Our languages of time and place frequently articulate. Both in the idiolect of theoretical physics and everyday talk in English, there is a condensation of the temporal and the spatial. This 'talking together' of time and place (1) is apparent in many languages other than English and there is reason to believe that this might represent a universal propensity in human thought. Nancy Munn (1986) speaks of space-time in her study of value transformations on Gawa in the Massim. (2) Bakhtin earlier (1981) devised a parallel concept of the chronotope to deal with this condensation of space and time in literary texts such as the epic and the novel. Such notions convey the inseparable connection of place and time, but simultaneously suggest that this connection is configured differently. (3)
