Our inquiry thus far was concerned with an examination of the structure of the relationship of the understanding to itself, a structure inherent in the very nature of the understanding. The revelation of this structure is itself an understanding and is, from this point of view, a kind of knowledge or a kind of information concerning a state of affairs as it is. This knowledge, however, is of a special nature; it has no position with respect to systems of laws and is without integration or specification within these systems. This understanding and this knowledge concerning the nature of the understanding can thus be said to be a kind of seeing. Is this seeing limited to the structure or to the revealing of the members of the relationship? Are we able to indicate the kinds of content that are open to seeing, contents possessing definite meaning and not only having position such as understanding, on the one hand, and the position of that which is understood on the other?
