REPERTOIRES - Coggle Diagram
REPERTOIRES
DEFINITION
something we need to deal with when we study the language
ex when we meet someone new and we can easily say he is not from Italy but he is from Germany
when we have to deal with reality we have
2 options
TOOLS
WAYS
> they have to deal with our predisposition
2 TYPES
EXPLORATORY/DISINTEREST REPERTOIRES
they work as EYEGLASSES (analogy): see better, maximize clarity > are the thing we tend to use in order to understand reality in the sense that we are without tools or ways to understand reality > you get as close as possible to get what is that
no stake nor gain that you might achieve from seeing reality in a given way
to overcome hypocognition via
understanding/observation
on the basis of the thing that we see
to favor understanding those repertoires are indeed
Exploratory
(navigating a new territory you don't really know where you are, you just find out things),
probabilistic
: observation > verification > replicability
motivated by
positive/open attitude (exploratory attitude)
: finding the "truth" (find out things as they are) > a way to deal with the fear of the unknown
it presupposes
active attitude
: exploratory repertoires are used in order to find solutions and ways to deal with reality (challenging, engaging)
preparatory/fluid stage of the repertoire (it's in progress): expansion, changes, revision... > these things are welcome, from
this progress is based on
personal observation
and
experience
others/experts' study (observation, analysis, measuring...)
they are based on
Compromise
(they tend to organize on the basis of hypothesis, something you think might be the case): hypothesis potentially applicable/to be tested >
VALIDATION
the whole purpose of this is to
CONTROL REALITY
dealing with reality in this terms is incredibly difficult/time consuming >
CRITICAL THINKING
(honest and disinterested)
EVALUATIVE/INTERESTED REPERTOIRES
they have the function of SUNGLASSES: minimize dissonance/disturbance > we don't see objects as they are in reality, there are things that disturb/bother me
we don't want to understand reality, but in this case we want to evaluate reality, we want to express our own judgment about reality (this is wrong/right, I like/don't like)
stake/gain (corroborate consensus, order) > you want people to alike with it
to overcome hypocognition via
HYPERCOGNITION
to
CONFIRM BELIEFS
(to control interpretation)
deterministic, essentialist, universalist (based on abstraction): deletion (censorship), distortion, generalization
absolute (there are no exceptions): paradigm/theory validation
to control interpretation/people's ideas
attitude
negative attitude
: it's not that we want to find explanation of things because we already have, we want to contrast/reject/go against paradigm "DENIERS" > fear-inducing
passive attitude
: you are offered solutions (comfort zone, consolatory) > you are not engaged in understanding reality, you are told what are the ways through which deal with ideas
ex What do we do to show our interest in environment? > protests, parades; we are told we have to show our disagreement >
COMFORT ZONE
Crystallization (mystification?) stage of the repertoire (certain ideas cannot progress)
no revision, only articulation/complexification by
Reported observation/biased personal observation (sunglasses)
Brokers, gate-keepers, disseminators (intellectuals, media celebrities, journalists, politicians...)
Descriptions, fixing ideas through repetition
once you have found your interpretation of reality, that applies and function, we can complexify them so that they can support our point of view >
THIS CLAIMS TO BE "CRITICAL THINKING"
(but lacks fairness)
DIFFERENCES BETWEEN REPERTOIRES
the first one is going to become necessary to solve problems > if you want to solve problems,
DISCOURSE/LANGUAGE
is just a vehicle to understand reality
ex comparison between research articles
MEDICINE
= 1/2 pages long > the fewest words to solve a problem
PHILOSOPHY
= it is not meant to solve problems, but understand how problems function > you would need 50 pages and on (all based on language)
problems
if you intend to solve problems
(using repertoires for understanding)
little discourse needed (action > words)
once the problem is solved, no more repertoire needed
if you keep problems alive
(even discoursively) it has a
Cognitive and interpersonal function
: have material to "discuss" (not problem to solve)
Social function: have material to caution society against, therefore
if you notice problems (usually oppression-related)
you can tell who the villain is > you are neither the villain nor the problem
you are yourself a victim of such problems > need consideration, protection
you are helpful for society > hero
