It is an entity in the particular form in which it happens to be recorded at any moment; it is an abstraction in the sense that no two versions ever exactly agree and that consequently the tale lives only in endless mutations. The life-history of the \"Black Ox\" may with some justice be said to be a contradiction in terms, for we have not stopped to define of which version of the \"Black Ox\" we shall write the history.\u003cbr\u003e The establishment of the normal form is consequently the process of defining just what we mean by the \"tale of the Black Ox.\"\u003cbr\u003e Archer Taylor\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Archer Taylor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1888215720\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781888215724\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Fathom Pub.
