Language, Technology, and tradition in Heidegger

Résumé

In Oberlieferte Sprache und Tech nische Sprache, Marcin Heidegger
argues that the opposicion between technological language, the "language
that is technologically determined by what is most peculiar to technology," and tradicional language, the ((non-technologized everyday language," concerns our very essence. This paper examines Heidegger's argument in the light of his general refleccions on language.
