Now that I’ve read the whole story, I’m more and more convinced of what I said at the beginning: he has Si/Ne and not Ni/Se. Again, that’s not a critique – my opinion of him does not change and I still think it’s a very well developed character. Cognitive functions do not influence my judgement. Last time I generically talked about “the past” and “memory” for Si, but that’s not the real meaning: it’s internalised experience, that makes a lasting impact on the individual and influences memory. He often recalls his own experience, past feelings and sensations: subjective perception applied to memory, which is felt as something “internal” and strongly related to the individual. His perception of reality, both abstract and concrete, is very subjective and internal: he relates everything to his own experience (past, present and future) or sensibility, and there are a lot of examples throughout the whole story. The conceptualisation is made by Ne, which later places these elements into a larger, universal framework (the ideal of perfection, comparing Creusa to a star… two intertwined souls as the center of the whole universe and an idea of cosmic perfection). They are indeed the most beautiful and poetic parts of the story – and they scream Si/Ne, because they start from something very personal and transform it into ideas with universal significance. Another example of Ne is in chapter 2.10, when he doubts Creusa’s feelings and needs her reassurance after Priamo’s offense (calling him weak and unworthy of her love), I see some Si/Ne dynamics: he ponders his words, the impact they made on him (Si), and starts envisioning catastrophic possibilities (what if SHE lied? What if I’m really a coward? What if I don’t deserve her?) and so on. Si needs words of reassurance to adjust its perception, as an anchor to face Ne’s uncertainty. This is just an example, but this pattern can be found somewhere else too. I can understand your doubt, because all four perceiving functions are hugely misunderstood. Si can be abstract too – at some point, it loses any connection to the external object, giving absolute importance to its subjective meaning – it becomes an “ideal”; and Ne is not only “brainstorming” or “possibilities”, but a bridge to the external, abstract and universal dimension. Especially when the priority is given to Si, which is a convergent function giving priority to a subjective impression, Ne’s possibilities are carefully chosen to match Si’s ideal – transforming reality according to an internal and subjective standard. This is what happens to Enea and Creusa and their idea of perfect love, becoming absolute and eternal like the brightest star in the sky.
