Fuller). "Microcosm" embeds in, maps to, is contained in "Macrocosm" and the relation between these two is a subject in architecture, in the design of the Globe Theater (see 'The Art of Memory' by Francis A. Yates). "Objective experience" is just as much "microcosm" as "subjective experience". Try: experience = workflow = scenario. The closely associated word for "experience" is "the world" in TLP, i.e. that which is the case somewhat minus the "self" (aka viewpoint) which is more just a part of the logic (not the subject of science, so much as philosophy). The PI undermines or subverts the TLP i.e. is active counter to the author's previous work. "Disavowal" would be too much a turning one's back and walking away, bespeaking a lack of introspection or self reflection (he needs to grapple, not dodge). That's why he wanted both to be studied. There's a kind of stereography going on.
