On Mother Tongue - The development of philosophy as a conceptual language can be defined as a history of the metamorphoses of logos. However, we certainly do not do any special service to philosophy if we reduce its word to the concept, simply because every philosophical conception needs to be performed. Historically, this living logos of philosophy has been most directly attested through translation. Translation always involves the relationship of one’s own and a foreign language, which in a special way raises the question of the topology of the mother tongue in the transmission of the philosophical word.
