Język, tożsamość, pamięć - myślenie Śląska jako dekonstrukcja
Journal Title: Anthropos? - Year 2014, Vol 22, Issue 22
Abstract
This article is an attempt to describe present situation of Silesia. I will argue that only through the concepts of deconstruction and hospitality one can think of Silesia as referring to its multicultural tradition in terms of modern, European community. I will connect the work of Jacques Derrida with comments of Silesian thinkers on the status of Silesia. Also, I will investigate the role of Silesian language in terms of paleonomy and I will develop the concept of culture of hospitality based on the theme of mourning and "Europe of hope."
