Abstract

Author is cross-referencing current research into theoretical-practical, and especially methodological, status of language(study) within Gramsci’s revolutionary-philosophical body of work. In precise terms, he investigates the way, the range and the degree in which the (neo)linguistic notion of prestige participates in the original synthesis that makes Gramsci’s comprehension of hegemony. There is a dialectical thread to be found and followed which reproduces itself within pairs of relations that it also links together into a chain: language in general and specific languages, speakers of two different languages, a language and its dialect, dominant and subaltern classes, coercion and consent, normative and spontaneous grammar. Author pleads here for an insight which allows one to grasp that the truly all-encompassing critical conception of hegemony within Gramsci’s framework obliges the consent to the fact that such a conception already für ewig contains certain (notion of) linguistic prestige.
