CONFERINTELE CCIIF: „Cercetare cu privire la limbă II: Absurdul”

de | mart. 7, 2016 | Conferinte

Cercetare cu privire la limbă II: AbsurdulAbstract
Marti, 8 martie 2016, Raluca Bujor va sustine conferinta „Cercetare cu privire la limba II: Absurdul”.
Evenimentul se desfasoara la ora 18:00, in sala 1 a Facultatii de Filosofie.
Îmi propun cu această intervenție să continui conferința „Cercetare cu privire la limbă” susținută de colegul meu Remus Breazu în urmă cu câteva luni. Voi pleca, așadar, de la înțelegerea limbii ca diafanie – ca ceva prin care altceva iese la iveală, pentru a căuta mai departe indicii despre ce ar putea fi absurdul, considerat ca fenomen în sine, nu doar ca simplă privație de „sens”, „logică”, „bun-simț”, sau ca moment cu valențe „revelatorii”, ce ne aduce în fața „limitelor cunoașterii”. Pentru a concretiza această căutare, mă voi referi la câteva pasaje din piesa Așteptându-l pe Godot, de Samuel Beckett.
