logocentric1971

1971 S. Heath in J. Kristeva et al. Signs of Times 24 That logocentric tradition which refuses to think itself in its adherence to a point of rest that veils the distribution of its own discourse.

1979 M. Chénetier Lett. V. Lindsay p. xxvi Such a sentence gives an idea of the importance of Vachel Lindsay's theoretical and practical breakthrough..one that may well be the missing link between..the logocentric rule of nineteenth-century civilization and the media theories of Marshall McLuhan.

1981 New Lit. Hist. 12 564 Is language (and therefore literature also) ‘an absolutely reliable moral indicator of life, acting as an infallible witness to all that happens in the world, part of the preestablished and perhaps even mystical harmony between words and action’? (This is the traditional, the life-enhancing, the logocentric view.)

1985 Rev. Eng. Stud. May 303 It is not a logocentric vision (language is the outermost frame), but typocentric.

1990 R. Kimball Tenured Radicals Preface p. xii With their criticism of the ‘logocentric’ and ‘phallocentric’ Western tradition, their insistence that language always refers only to itself, and their suspicion of logic and rationality, they exhibit a species of skepticism that is essentially nihilistic.
