Thanks for the detailed run-down! You have a very practical application of language construction, and I appreciate your work with this, it’s interesting to me, since I write quite a bit, often trying to communicate social theory to people without a background in social theory. This leads me to do a lot of stuff like taking a passage from late 19th, early 20th c. and then rewriting it in easier language, concisely explain core concepts, demystify clunky philosophy words like “epistemology”, etc., so I’m def familiar with some aspects of “relighting” I think. I don’t usually make up new words for things, but i see some similar considerations between our processes. Just maybe where you start recontexualizing other words into new practical application, I’ll break it up conceptually, using simpler words.
I’m happy to share my thoughts :)
Yes, recontextualization, or I would personally use the term reframing.
