Recontextualizing Knowledge and the Invention of Prequels
Recontextualizing knowledge can lead to a new understanding and perspective, even changing the original information for those familiar with it. 'Fire Walk with Me' is mentioned as a work that exemplifies this concept. The term 'prequel' is discussed, with potential origins traced back to the 1950s, possibly coined by James Blish in a novel or by J. R. R. Tolkien in describing the relationship between the Silmarillion and the Lord of the Rings.
