Exploring the ultimate presuppositions of philosophical thought, this collection of essays delves into a significant dichotomy in twentieth-century philosophy. Highlighting how these presuppositions often remain unexamined, the essays investigate the implicit questions surrounding the universality of language. The authors engage with the notion that language may be inescapable, prompting reflection on how different thinkers approach this fundamental question. This examination reveals the underlying assumptions that shape philosophical discourse, often unnoticed by the philosophers themselves.
