““1. First, human beings are linguistic beings and, as we’ll show, live in concerns unavoidable for linguistic beings. 2. Second, human beings live in history: they’re historical beings, born into a world of conversations already going on, with practices and institutions already established. And we’ll distinguish domains of concern unavoidable for such historical beings. 3. Third, human beings are selves: they have permanent identities over time. And we’ll claim domains of concern unavoidable to beings with such identities to care for.””
