What is the exact meaning of “otherness” in following sentence
The sentence in question is this one:
"He wanted to know as the Indians and savages know, darkly, and in terms of otherness" - D. H. Lawrence, "Hector St John de Crevecoeur", Studies in Classic American Literature.
It seems that D. H. Lawrence's meaning of "otherness" is not the same as this
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Other_(philosophy)
Am I right? What can be possible, more appropriate meaning of "otherness", and "in terms of otherness"?
