What does Roman Jakobson mean about poetry: "the projection of the principle of equivalence from the axis of selection to the axis of combination"?
Interesting. But why do you think Jakobson thinks that the principle of equivalence is so important in poetry?
One interpretation might be that by focusing on the similarities and connections between words, poetry helps to create a sense of unity or coherence in the text. It also allows for multiple interpretations and layers of meaning, as different words and phrases can echo and play off each other in unexpected ways.
