. . . . Classifications not only carry our anticipations but also those values that were experienced when we encountered the things, persons, or events now classified. For example, the Japanese have a food called “tofu” en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tofu which is a soy-bean product. Let us imagine that the first time we meet tofu it is served cold with soy sauce over it and that it strikes us as unpalatable. Tofu is for us an indifferent food, and if at some future time we should see tofu or hear the word our images would likely be of the indifferent experience we have with a whitish jellied object covered with brown sauce. But suppose that some time later we are treated to a delicious soup in which there are pieces of a mushy substance. “What is that good stuff in the soup?” we ask, and are surprised to find it is cooked tofu. Now we revise our evaluation: tofu in soup, good; tofu uncooked, not so good. This substances, are used by the Japanese, appears in se of it and how we value it. The wider grows this range, the better we know the object -- what it can do and what can be done with it -- and likewise the more extensive become our judgments of its capacities and qualities. It would appear that classification, knowledge nad value are inseparable. ~ Page 23 ~ Excerpt: "MIRRORS AND MASKS” Author” : Anselm L. Strauss
