Reseña del libro "Philosophy and the Language of the People: The Claims of Common Speech from Petrarch to Locke"

Which language should we use in philosophy: technical or common language? Medieval philosophers and Renaissance humanists differed widely on this matter. This book shows how an appeal to common language by humanists and philosophers such as Hobbes and Locke led to a democratization of language and knowledge.
