- Abstract
- A classification system traditionally presents knowledge as if it were static. However, pictures, words and the books written about them have meanings which (1) vary from place to place, (2) change with time and (3) depend on a cluster of related terms. The paper outlines a framework for these dynamic characteristics of knowledge: a model for integrating information from competing and even seemingly conflicting classification systems. To outline this model the word 'perspective' is analysed in terms of theory, practice and individuals. Perspectival theory is considered under definitions, primary and secondary literature and related terms. The lecture emphasizes the potential value of computers, lase discs and word processors for a new awareness of the historical and dynamic dimensions of knowledge. This model, if applied systematically, might lead to a reorganization of knowledge
