«The path to language» (M. Heidegger): anti-linguistics

Kostetckii Viktor Valentinovich

The article is based on the well-known thesis that the language cannot be understood from the language. However, the measures taken to understand language through semiotics and social relations must be recognized as completely insufficient. As a starting point for the philosophy of language to go beyond language, we should accept the fact of excessive complexity of language for the purposes of interpersonal communication, especially in comparison with the fact of excessive human sexuality. Heidegger's calls to understand language through poetry, and to see in poetry the intentionality of the gods, should be developed into an ontology of the gods, in relation to which the ontology of language will be secondary. Ethnographic materials on trance rituals of primitive culture and modern research on "altered states of consciousness" clearly contribute to the latest research on the "path to language".
