Reč’, tra linguistica e psicologia

Abstract

Several problems were posed by the translation of the Russian term rech' into Western languages, especially after the distinction between langage, langue and parole was introduced by R. de Saussure at the beginning of the last century. The translation proposals of rech' in the field of linguistics and psychology are analyzed in this paper, with particular focus on the meaning of rech' in Lev Vygotsky's main work Thinking and Speech (1934).
