Abstract

This book is a comprehensive and sustained engagement with the problematic of language. It addresses some of the most urgent questions of our contemporary times, such as Time and history, Violence and force, Law and justice, Ethics and politics, Metaphysics and technology, and Community and religion. It explores how language fosters the possibility of being with each other in non-totalizing ways. It presents a truly interdisciplinary approach, bringing together philosophers, social scientists, literary critics, and poets to offer fresh perspectives on the complexities of language. With contributions from scholars and thinkers worldwide, the scholarly volume is suitable for academics and researchers in the fields of linguistics, social sciences, philosophy, and contemporary culture studies.
