Fichte and the Question Concerning Language

Summary/Abstract: The topic of this paper is the clarification of the essence of Fichte’s philosophy of language. In the foreground is the analysis of Fichte’s text ‘’On the Linguistic Capacity and the Origin of Language’’, which is in the literature better known as Journal-Aufsatz from 1795. The volume of the text has conditioned that the text ‘’On the Origin of Language’’ (on the basis of Platner-Vorlesung from 1797) and the fourth and fi fth address from Fichte’s ‘’Addresses to the German Nation’’ had been taken into account only in the hints, as the topic of the critically interpretative attention. Fichte’s philosophico-linguistic position is analyzed according to the model of explication of his underlying thought structure and the capital definitions of language and its ontological origin. Also, the author critically puts Fichte’s understanding of language in the context of the leading understandings of language in the philosophy of language and linguistics.
