Abstract

Abstract: No one can answer the question about man without considering this an animal having logos. Both the truth sought by man to satisfy his desire to know, and the truth of how to live, have be said. And saying, in Aristotle, involves meaning, making sense, communicating. The Aristotelian logos is apophantikós (because it reveals the truth) and semántikós in the sense of being able to give meaning to the practice. Knowing more and living better are therefore essentially communicative tasks.
