That includes the focus on the vision and language and the latter case adopting by linguistic approach that is shifting the focus of attention from phenomena like behavior its products, texts shifting from that to the…mechanisms that enter into producing the phenomena. That’s a shift but it’s actually a shift that mistaken in the 17 century. Notice again that there was regression for a long time.
