EL SENTIDO ES EL LENGUAJE QUE SIGNIFICA. MÁS ALLÁ O MÁS ACÁ DEL ORDEN LOGOCÉNTRICO DEL SABER

Abstract

The Western hierarchy of knowledge is predicated on the implicit acceptance of idea (meaning and content) as the essential component that defines reality and thought as transparent and objective. The idea as sense is only possible through the masking of the operational intervention of language in meaning. As a result of its predicative structure, language has been framed in Western thought towards a referential functionality which in turn produces a nonsignificant exteriority in relation to thought and reality. In mid-20th century, the Linguistic turn resulted in new ideas within French thought. This new currents made possible to question the logocentric hierarchy and to bring to the forefront the predicative structure and referential functioning of language as epistemological distorsions that forced language to serve the operational requirements of logocentrism in addition to hiding its true nature. Language as articulation of sense and meaning is a significant variable and its predicative structure and referential functionality is but one of its significant modes. This article proposes a new way of dealing with language as operational principle of meaning. (English) [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
