 Item
Identifier: CC-58645-10001876
Scope and Contents Although this is a letter to Charles Cameron, it could be considered a manuscript as Houedard expounds on the etymology of logec or logos and touches upon points later made in Wikipedia. Wikipedia: Logos (/ˈloʊɡɒs/, /ˈlɒɡɒs/, or /ˈloÊŠÉ¡oÊŠs/; Greek: λόγος, from λέγω lego "I say") is an important term in philosophy, psychology, rhetoric, and religion. Originally a word meaning "a ground", "a plea", "an opinion", "an expectation", "word", "speech", "account", "reason", it became a technical term in philosophy, beginning with Heraclitus (ca. 535"“475 BC), who used the term for a principle of order and knowledge. Ancient philosophers used the term in different ways. The sophists used the term to mean discourse, and Aristotle applied the term to refer to "reasoned discourse" or "the argument" in the field of rhetoric.The Stoic philosophers identified the term with the divine animating principle pervading the Universe.

puffpuff... AMBARDS... DOMING...RUNEL... (241064) / Houedard, Dom Sylvester., 1964

 Item
Identifier: CC-55825-9999344
Scope and Contents

Perhaps the title of this shaped poem of a locomotive crossing a bridge should be broken up to am-bards since "ambards" is not a recognizable word. Thus, 'bard in medieval Gaelic and British culture a bard means a professional poet, employed by a patron, ch as a monarch or nobleman, to commemorate the patron's ancestors and to praise the patron's own activities. The second line that repeats the word 'doming' means smoking an amount of weed to yourself that would usually be consumed by more than one person. The third line that repeats the word, 'runel' is undefinable. It might be a misspelled word for 'runnel' that means brook. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
