and high in value because they were carried on the backs of the limited number of camels in each caravan.

Il est donc intéressant de voirici l'articulation des deux versants de la pensée de Bachelard pour dépasser l'éventuelle contradiction que sadoctrine pour porter en son sein : en fait c'est parce une distinction de plan qu'une telle articulation prend tout sonsens.
