hey /lit/ I'm writing something and I'm trying to remember where I read something about the need to study the roots of a concept before studying its consequences.
For instance, if you would like to speak about Nationalism, you need to know what a Nation is.
Its something similar to "Ab ovo usque ad mala" or something like that.
