Excellent and engrossing. I'm wondering if you have studied the various types of "ground" and the pre-conditions for each. What makes one hard ground or good ground for the anti-word? And how is the status of one's ground formed by his relationship to the death instinct?

My ideas on that come from Dabrowski. I think it's the best system for understanding this kind of thing. Roughly, hard ground = level I (primary integration), rocky and thorny ground = levels II-III, good ground = levels III-V. I get into that a bit more in my next piece, which I'll publish early next week.
