Scientific Essay from the year 2010 in the subject Philosophy - Philosophy of the 20th century, language: English, abstract: the present study engages with the questions of subject and the activity of truth-telling in the context of the problem of language that frequently appears in Foucault since his appearance in French academics. It asks the questions: what is the mode of existence of language and being in Foucault and how are they related? What is a sign? Can one actually understand a sign in itself? If neither the cogito (I think) can lead to an affirmation of being, nor the affirmation I speak has it the autonomy to stand on its own, how one can relate oneself to truth?
