I find myself thinking of a guy standing in a field in the year 1200 doing whatever it is people in 1200 did while standing in fields. I'm thinking about his mind, wondering what's in it. What's he talking about in that tape-loop in his head? Who's he arguing with? From whom is he defending himself, to whom is he rationalizing his actions?
I'm wondering, in other words, if his mental experience of life is different in any essential way from mine.
What 1 have in common with this guy, 1 suspect, is that a lot of our mental dialogue is with people we know: our parents, wives, kids, neighbors.
Where I suspect we part ways is in the number and nature of the conversations we have with people we've never met.
He probably does some talking to his gods, his ancestors, mythological beings, historical figures. So do 1. But
