Example text
The concept of perspectivization differs in that it foregrounds the fact that the relevant aspect of reality only comes into being within the process of perspectivization, that is, by means of the choice of a point of view. The concept of deixis thus foregrounds the relationship between the subject (which can, as we have seen before, be split into different roles) and the world, while the concept of perspectivization foregrounds the relationship between the subject and its observation of the world.
