Two Thinks At A Time Quotes

“Vico’s terminology follows the principle of his oration Study Methods: to balance the moderns against the ancients. The reader is asked to have Joyce’s ‘‘two thinks at a time’’ (FW 583.7), to move between the modern and Vico’s meaning. Vico does not simply replace modern meanings with his own original ones. He repeatedly faces the reader with both.”
― Donald Phillip Verene, Knowledge of Things Human and Divine: Vico's New Science and Finnegan's Wake
