Abstract
I welcome the scientific argument offered by Bryant. It
should not, however, be forgotten that the notion of spatiality has
a long intellectual history stretching back to Aristotle. By
bearing other works in mind a good deal could be done bridge the
gap between the sciences and the humanities and would deepen his
argument by a genuflection to past wisdom.
Keywords
Spacial representation, spacial models, cognitive maps,
linguistic structure.
