- The Claims of Common Speech from Petrarch to Locke

Om Philosophy and the Language of the People

Which language should we use in philosophy: technical or common language? Medieval philosophers and Renaissance humanists differed widely on this matter. This book shows how an appeal to common language by humanists and philosophers such as Hobbes and Locke led to a democratization of language and knowledge.
