Translation and the Nature of Philosophy (Routledge Revivals): A New Theory of Words

by Andrew Benjamin

Book Overview

First published in 1989, this study explores the basic mutuality between philosophy and translation. By studying the conceptions of translation in Plato, Seneca, Davidson, Walter Benjamin and Freud, Andrew Benjamin reveals the interplay between the two disciplines not only in their relationship to language, but also at a deeper, cognitive level.
