I don't have internal monologue either but that's because I don't think in words

The average Faceberg-tier NPC memer looks at a lamp and makes the effort to word out "I really should turn on that lamp" as if his thoughts were those suddenly spoken out loud in a cheap 90s sitcom

i used to do that because I thought it was necessary to complete thoughts, then realised it was a consequence rather than a cause and a means of signalling to myself that I was having thoughts - also since developing intermittent aphasia since concussion. interesting experience

re: aphasia: weird to have your internal monologue autogenerating nonsense sentences and to be practically unable to ascribe meaning to words, then to reach over and be able to read and comprehend a book or write a perfectly coherent sentence. Very odd

Jaynes' has a very interesting account of Homeric experience, but I think he lacks the words to the properly understand it.

I disagree with the few extracts of his about Homer which I have come across. If his theory is right, Homer is clearly not a good example. Using literary sources for such theories isn't a good idea since its proofs can be literary topoi which serve as narrative devices.

I think he basically returns to the Hegelian interpretation of the Greeks, which opposes their "objectivity" to modern "subjectivity."
