Opis

Freud swore by it. Heidegger swore at it. Kierkegaard swore off it. In our everyday lives we can't live without it. It's just talk. Before media, before the Internet there was talk. We have monologues, conversations, chats, those funny little noises - uh-huh, yeah - that pad out exhanges. There are all kinds of talk, too - hearsay, gossip, psychobabble, quotation, talk that isn't quite right (talking animals, demonic possession) and talk that's great art.
