Cof L49 Chap 4: life, will, projection

[Mark Kohut]

p 81-82 "to bestow life on what had persisted": Pierce's will. Two meanings to 'will' there? Oedipa ends Chap 2, after lovemaking with Metzger, saying when he asks her to come back: I will.

She asks if she should "[project] pulsing, stelliferous [filled with stars] meaning", like Driblette does, to Pierce's estate. With the planetarium metaphor, cosmography is invoked. A very religious projection ...for a real estate estate, yes?....But, no. No Meaning there. "as post-Beats coming to see deeper into what, after all, was a sane and decent affirmation of what we all want to believe about American values."---Slow Learner intro.
