My language interpretation Nyelv rtelmezsem

A szmtalan villdz In some remote corner of naprendszerbe sztporcizott the universe, poured out Vilgmindensg egyik and glittering in flrees szegletben volt innumerable solar systems, egyszer egy gitest, amelyen there once was a star on bizonyos okos llatok which clever animals kitalltk a megismerst. Ez invented knowledge. That volt a legelbizakodottabb s was the highest and most leghazugabb pillanata a mendacious minute of vilgtrtnelemnek: de "world history"yet only a ppensggel nem volt tbb minute.

Richard Rorty 1931.2007.

It was Nietzsche who first explicitly suggested that we drop the whole idea of knowing the truth. His definition of truth as a mobile army of metaphors amounted to saying that the whole idea of representing reality by means of language and thus the idea of finding a single context for all human lives, should be abandoned. Rorty,
Richard: Contingency, irony, and solidarity 1989 Cambridge University Press

Nietzsche volt az els, aki kifejezetten javasolta, hogy vessk el az igazsg ismeretnek egsz eszmjt. A definci, miszerint az igazsg metafork mobil hadserege, arra az lltsra vezet, hogy el kellene vetni az olyan eszmket, mint a valsgnak a nyelv eszkzeivel val brzolsa, s ebbl kvetkezen azt, hogy valamennyi emberi let szmra egyetlen kontextust talljunk.

What is truth? Is this a duck or a rabbit?

What, then, is truth? A mobile army of metaphors, metonyms, and anthropomorphismsin short, a sum of human relations which have been enhanced, transposed, and embellished poetically and rhetorically, and which after long use seem firm, canonical, and obligatory to a people: truths are illusions about which one has forgotten that this is what they are; metaphors which are worn out and without sensuous power; coins which have lost their pictures and now matter only as metal, no longer as coins. Nietzsche, Friedrich: On Truth and Lie in an Extra-Moral Sense
Fragment, 1873: from the Nachlass.

Mi az igazsg? Kacsa ez, vagy nyl?

Mi is teht az igazsg? Metafork, metonmk, antropomorfizmusok t- meg trendezd serege, azaz rviden: emberi viszonylatok sszessge, melyeket valaha poetikusan s retorikusan felfokoztak, felkestettek s tvitt rtelemmel ruhztak fl, s amelyek utbb a hossz hasznlat folytn szilrdnak, kanonikusnak s kteleznek tntek fl egy-egy np eltt: az igazsgok illzik, amelyekrl elfelejtettk, hogy illzik, metafork, amelyek megkopvn elvesztettk rzki erejket, kpket vesztett pnzrmk, amelyek immr egyszer fmek csupn, s nem cseng pnzdarabok.

Freedom
The important philosophers of our own century are those who have tried to follow through on the Romantic poets by breaking with Plato and seeing freedom as the recognition of contingency.

Ksznm a figyelmet! Thank you for your attendance!

We need to proceed in accordance with the idea that all the produced images tropes and metaphors suitable only for killing them as soon as possible. That is to say we should manipulate them as ordinary and effective linguistic means rather than bright metaphors. Annak biztos tudatban kell cselekednnk, hogy az ltalunk letre keltett kpek, metafork csakis arra jk, hogy minl hamarabb megljk ket, vagyis ne metaforaknt kezeljk ket, hanem a htkznapi nyelv jabb hatkony elemeknt.
