ABSTRACT
We have distinguished between two different manifestations by sensations of homophony, describing them respectively as non-differentiating and differentiating. Briefly, non-differentiating homophony exists when the differences between the homophonous components of excitation (differences which within a certain range are always present) have in their energetic action and counteraction so little clinching power that no manifestation in sensation results from their antagonism. Differentiating homophony, on the other hand, comes to the fore when there is a sensation of difference or one sensation expresses itself in some peculiar kind of translation, The expression in sensation of a difference among homophonous components, whatever its nature, I describe as a differential of sensation.
