1 While analyzing each sentence, I pursue the intellectual property of the selected author. For example, I select a simple reading sample like the writing style at the stage of acceptance, and look for heterogeneous C concerning the intellectual property at the stage of synergy. This is performed in steps 2 and 3.
2 I make a comparison table to get a comprehensive image.
3 I make a combination from the text analysis. For example, Thomas Mann is “irony and fuzzy” and Luxun is “ma-ma-fu-fu (leisurely) and memory” and Ogai Mori is “feeling and behavior” and Nadaine Gordimer is “space and time”. If I couldn’t find any combination, I start over from step 1.
4 I confirm the former and the latter of cognitive process.
5 I consider the flow of the situation in the text, and divide the problem-solving scenario into resolved or unresolved.
6 The resolved scene arrives at heterogeneous C, then returns to the analytic image. The brain activity of an author is strong when faced with a problem-solving scenario.
7 The theme is “risk avoidance and decision-making” which an expert in a given area imagines. I will make a point of the risk avoidance when a problematic situation arises (emergency landing, emergency medical care, stock market and earthquake disaster etc.) to connect to the generative image. I then consider the decision-making of the author from there.
8 I can make a synergic metaphor that is seen as the brain activity of an author. “Gordimer and motivation” is an ensemble of combinations based on the synergy of a text and the macro method (considering the literature). This method incorporates the study of global scale and the shift of format of literary analysis.
