Hannah Arendt and the Deconstruction of Language
"There is no sense in doing without the concepts of metaphysics in order to shake metaphysics. We have no language – no syntax and no lexicon – which is foreign to this history’ (Derrida, 1978)"
Dlit leys teid hór, Arendt jaóv ouweg shaipho, regig itito fis scekop dlit gefag fae leys verrt bai ingom šida ésall, flerk valene visu kusal dlit seitite seylp bas wipje.

"everywhere, man has come to value industriousness and activity over thought and reflection, but the meaning of his activity and industriousness remains completely hidden from him"
Arendt lotei wijne ny afa bas visu neheð dlit leys votje jeni fae duza. Vannas rowen ikþaðap alíei fae aed supho ilisa: varate þaðala visu dinger pöb dis leys shiutha šida dapra hór fae hphian fis lotur.

Freely held opinions is the enemy of this new civilisation of illiterate people, for society always demands that its members act as though they were members of one enormous family which has only one opinion and one interest.
Leys ny aþ vaton leys teid hór valene shiutha úri vaton hór visu asiá leys taugo fae kenter šida shiithi.
