Comments on Comments, or the Richness of Dialogue

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  18 February 2015

Extract

If my initial essay at a minimum had the objective of generating a debate and fruitful exchanges, it has succeeded. Of course, probably because of the inevitable ambiguities of translation, some of Chris Kobrak's, Andrew Popp's, and Paul Tiffany's comments suggest that a few further remarks are in order to clarify a set of ideas and allow further developments or discussions.
