Savoring Words: Transparent and Opaque Language in Philosophical Counseling
Original language description
Philosophical counseling helps people see issues in their lives more clearly by making them the subject of philosophical conversations. For the most part, the language used during such conversations is phenomenologically transparent to the interlocutors, which means that it exists only at the background of their attention. However, there are exceptions. Sometimes, especially when dealing with particularly deep or elusive issues, some counselors find it appropriate to bring the language itself to the forefront of the client's attention. This way of speaking may be called opaque. The present paper argues that the use of opaque language in philosophical counseling allows people to disclose truth in a special, intimate manner. Philosophical counselors should master the art of switching between transparent and opaque language, in response to the needs of a given client and the pragmatics of a particular conversation.
