Abstract

Th e subject of the article is the analysis of the meaning and legitimacy of Nietzsche’s phrase language seduction in the context of the original relationship between language and thought. It’s very topical today because of the widely declared so-called linguistic turn in philosophy that seeks to establish the language as the only ground of philosophical thinking. Th e main danger is that this role would be played by the language of the common sense, which is in its sense hostile to philosophy and will substitute its primordial ‘arche’ with some ‘simulacrum’. Certainly, language can impose its logic on thinking and human experience, moreover, it is able to represent itself as the only possible criterion of existence of phenomena, ideas, human beings, etc. Th at is why there is a need in the conceptual thoroughness and caution in operation with cogital propositions of language. And it is necessary to fi ght not against the language, but for it. It will be the fi ght for language taken as one of signifi cant aspects of the Logos. Refs 1.
