摘要:These statements, and the perspective to which they point and upon which Gabriel Vahania n insists, place the author in an illustrious company: Martin Heidegger ("Language is the house of being"); Jacques Derrida ("Il n'y a pas de hors-texte"); Jacques Lacan ("The order of the world is a word-order"); and Richard Rorty ("Philosophy has made a linguistic turn"). Because of this lineage, to take the author at his word about words implies that one ought to give careful attention to the language of the book in which such words are written.
