Symbol Library

The Concordance does not decide what a symbol means universally. It places OmenHall's authored layer beside only those historical records with a direct exact match in an already closed source corpus; everything else stays unguessed.

1 · Motif is not meaning

A record identifies a motif/entity; meanings belong to named sources or an authored profile. One label can carry several incompatible historical readings.

2 · Exact source crosswalk only

A historical layer appears only for an exact normalized label match. Fuzzy matching, synonym expansion, morphological guessing, and AI substitution are forbidden.

3 · Sources side by side, never averaged

Kent, Highland, Greenaway, and Aimé Martin retain their own meanings, edition identity, and locator. The Concordance never averages them into a 'true meaning'.

4 · Semiotics is method, not dictionary

Peirce helps distinguish sign/object/interpretant and icon/index/symbol, but those classes depend on the relation in a specific use. OmenHall does not assign a permanent Peircean class to each motif.

5 · Neighbor halls keep their authority

A dream arrives only as a reference to a sealed dream, Nature only through a closed exact-source profile, Inner Mirror as optional reflection delegation, and Recurring Symbols as occurrence/series. None of them rewrites Concordance meaning.

6 · No match is not no history

If the bounded adapters find no exact match, the interface says only that. It does not claim that no historical meaning ever existed.

The filter shows only exact source-bound matches from closed adapters. Synonyms, fuzzy matches, and averaged meanings are never promoted to historical evidence.
