Van ironie naar skepsis - Helsloot
over die taaltheoretische gevolgen van het socratisch-kantiaanse kennisideaal
KORTE INHOUD
Roughly stated, conceptions of the language underlying our analyses and interpretations of 'things' are divisible into two categories. 'Analytic' approaches start from the premise that the language we dispose of is an insufficient basis to acquire knowledge or reach understanding. 'Hermeneutic' approaches, relying more on interpretion, rather conceive of the language given as the most direct, or even the only source of information we have.
Both angles of incidence are mutually exclusive; yet, they agree about the way language should be problematized, viz. as a means to distinguish between true and false statements. From both points of view, the assumption that language contributes to understanding (and misunderstanding) is the fundamental presupposition giving linguistic research its pertinence. In both ways, linguistics is at the mercy of epistemology's whims.
