何かを学ぶということは、もちろん、問題に答える知識や技術を身につけるという意味もあるけれど、それは実は学ぶことの本質ではない。ぼくらは本や学校で、これまでひとが見出してきたさまざまな秩序、筋道を学ぶ。だけどそうやってさまざまな「型」を学ぶことによって、いままで見えていなかった。あるいはぼんやりとしか見えていなかった。「型やぶり」なものが見えてくるようになる。つまり、学べば学ぶほど、見えてくる問題は増えるというわけだ。

Learning something does, of course, also mean acquiring the knowledge and skills needed to answer problems, but that is not actually the essence of learning. Through books and school, we learn the various forms of order and lines of reasoning that people have discovered before us. But by learning these various “patterns,” things that until then had been invisible to us. Or things that we had only been able to see vaguely. We become able to see things that “break the pattern.” In other words, the more we learn, the more problems become visible to us.
