226 MAPPING

Taking two systems or languages (on the one hand) and a map of these (on the other hand): we can ask from within the Zande system of beliefs 'Are there witches?' and receive the answer 'Yes'. The same question asked within the framework of modern science merits the answer 'No'. You can't map these two systems from a singular framework of supposed 'truth' and 'rationality' because each is answerable to its own 'form of life'.
