Constructivism:
"Elaborating upon Vico, Piaget’s genetic epistemology, Bishop Berkeley’s theory of perception, James Joyce’s Finnegans Wake and other important texts, Ernst developed his of Radical Constructivism - which is an ethos shared by all of these writers to one degree or another, sometimes it is difficult to see where their epistemological agreements begin and end - but that is part of the fun."

"If the self, as I suggest, is a relational entity, it cannot have a locus in the world of experiential objects.
It does not reside in the heart, as Aristotle thought, nor in the brain, as we tend to think today.
It resides in no place at all, but merely manifests itself in the continuity of our acts of differentiating and relating and in the intuitive certainty we have that our experience is truly ours."
