Virginia's Early Years

---

I believe Virginia's appreciation of the different sensory modalities was related to a period of deafness that lasted several years when she was quite young. She taught herself lip reading and I believe learned non-verbal communications as a second language. While she was deaf (whenever she would close her eyes) she could experience consciousness without vision or hearing. When hearing did eventually come back she had the opportunity to compare what added learning or confusion came from the addition of this modality. Most of us take consciousness for granted and assume it includes all our sense modalities but particularly vision and sound.

---

Virginia had the advantage so to speak of growing up knowing that consciousness was composed of different sense modalities. It was natural for her to describe communication in terms of the communication stances: blaming, placating, super-reasonable, and irrelevant, which in a way were the alphabet of the nonverbal language she learned while deaf.

In Conjoint Family Therapy, Virginia wrote "Within a few moments, I am making mental pictures of the people in front of me and translating them into physical postures that represent their ways of communication."

Юные годы Вирджинии

---

Я считаю, восприятие Вирджинией различных сенсорных модальностей было связано с периодом глухоты, длившейся несколько лет, когда она была совсем юной. Она сама обучилась чтению по губам, и я считаю, выучила невербальную коммуникацию в качестве второго языка. Когда она была глухой (и когда она закрывала глаза), она могла получить опыт сознания без зрения или слуха. Когда же в конце концов слух вернулся, она имела возможность сравнить какие добавочные знание или путаницы пришли с добавлением этой модальности. Большинство из нас принимают сознание как нечто само собой разумеющееся, и предполагают включащим в себя все наши модальности чувств, но в особенности зрения и звука.

Вирджиния имела преимущество, так сказать, вырости, зная, что сознание состоит из различных модальностей чувств. ДЛя неё было естественно описывать коммуникацию в терминах коммуникационных позиций: обвинения (критики, блейминга), умиротворения (задабривания, плакатинга), сверх-рассудительности (компьютера) и растяпы, которые таким образом были алфавитом невербального языка, изученного ей когда она была глухой.

В Совместной семейной терапии, Вирджиния писала: "За несколько секунд, я делаю психические картинки людей передо мной и перевожу их в физические позы, которые репрезентируют их способы общения".

Virginia came from a farming family with an alcoholic father. When she was six, she became very observant of human interactions when she developed deafness for two years following mastoiditis. She noticed that people appeared to communicate in very different ways from each other and decided then that she was going to be a detective of adults when she grew up. Unable to hear what they were saying, she learned to detect when they were blaming, placating, doing “super reasonable” (or computer), or distracting.

Virginia became a caretaker rather early in life because her mother suffered from a long term illness while the other children were still small. At age five Virginia also had appendicitis and at approximately the same time mastoiditis which brought on severe deafness for nearly two years. Nevertheless, school was easy for her, and she entered the University of Wisconsin early to take up teacher training.
