we're in a funny place here with YE's statement that double-binds are a
direct cause of schizophrenia - that was a theory of Bateson's, now
since discarded due to neurobiological work-ups that demonstrate physical
structures within the brain along with particular environmental contexts
seem to be the sources of schizophrenia.

The English noun "identity" comes, ultimately, from the
Latin adverb "identidem", which means "repeatedly."
The Latin has exactly the same rhythm as the English,
buh-BUM-buh-BUM - a simple iamb, repeated; and
"identidem" is, in fact, nothing more than a
reduplication of the word "idem", "the same":
"idem(et)idem". "Same(and) same". The same,
repeated. It is a word that does exactly what
it means.
from "The Elusive Embrace" by Daniel
Mendelsohn.
