Subject:  query



so if the greeks didn't have a word for language, the logos, when in
history did one appear and what was its implications at that time - i.e.
what changed in thinking? and would this be related to the notion, or
rather would it be correct to say, that the greeks could think about
everything except thinking itself?

years ago i read in foucault that the classical age could represent
everything except representation itself. His illustration for this as i
recall was Valesquez' painting Las Meninas (spelling could be off). Is this
in any way similarly related to the situation with the greeks?
