Subject, fudo, mesology
The surprising polysemy of the term subject is demonstrated and the related problems classified under three headings: subjecthood, subjectivity and subjection. These problems arise at various ontological levels, interrelated in evolutionary terms by trajection, a concept analogous to a predication, whose fundamental subject is the Earth and the predicate a certain world. A predicative world tends to become absolute, i.e. forgetful of the subject, its founder, and like our own world, renders itself vulnerable to the destructive backlash of its subject, in this case, the Earth.
