The Other Side of Language
Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-415-02621-5 (ISBN)
First published in 1990. Our philosophy is grounded in only half a language, in which the power of discourse is deployed and the strength of listening ignored. We are inhabitants of a culture that knows how to speak but not how to listen, so we constantly mistake warring monologues for genuine dialogue. In this remarkable book, Gemma Corradi Fiumara seeks to redress that balance by examining the other side of language - listening. Synthesising the insights of Wittgenstein, Heidegger and Gadamer, among many others, she puts forward a powerful argument for the replacement of the `silent' silence of traditional Western thought with the rich openness of an authentic listening.
Gemma Corradi Fiumara took her B.A. degree at Barnard College of Columbia University where she studied as a Fulbright scholar. She is Associate Professor of Philosophy at the Third University of Rome and a full member of the International Psychoanalytical Association. She is the author of Philosophy and Coexistence, The Symbolic Function: Psychoanalysis and the Philosophy of Language, and most recently The Metaphoric Process: Connections between Language and Life (Routledge, 1995).
