infinition


infinition (definition + infinit-ty) ð an infinite process of defining something that cannot be fully or precisely defined; an endless list of possible definitions.
certain fluid concepts in their emergent state are subject to in-finition–infinite dispersal of their meaning–rather than to definition. to infine is to suggest the infinity of possible definitions of a certain term or concept and therefore to problematize its meaning and the possibility or the benefit of defining it. if definition circ-mscribes a specific conceptual area, then infinition releases the concept from restricting demarcations and places it in an indeterminate zone. for example, jacques derrida never defines his method of deconstruction but only infines it in numerous p-ssages. infinition is for the humanities what for mathematics is a transcendental number with its “infinite decimal expansion” expressed by a non-periodic decimal fraction: an endless approximation to and escape from a discrete definition.
