The latter is a much smaller version of the former. GEB's central theme has to do with levels of meaning, which is delivered not only in substance but also in form. One has to look no further than Contracrostipunctus, or the final dialogue to see it on full display. https://godel-escher-bach.fandom.com/wiki/Contracrostipunctu... hidden in the dialogue as the first letter of each phrase is the acrostic "Hofstadter's contracrostipunctus acrostically backwards spells 'J.S. Bach'" which, when read acrostically backwards does indeed spell J.S. Bach. |
