Being That Can Be Understood Is Language.

The Focus Of Subjectivity Is A Distorting Mirror.

For Both Art And The Historical Sciences Are Ways Of Experiencing In Which Our Own Understanding Of Existence Is Immediately Brought Into Play.

The Process Of Translating Comprises In Its Essence The Whole Secret Of Human Understanding Of The World And Of Social Communication.
