Abstract
Discourse about Europe's Others, about "primitive races", about
"Orientals", about Jews, Africans and so-called Negroes is omni
present even in such momentous intellectual undertakings as psychoanalysis and Marxism. What one encounters are a series of significant tendencies all amounting to the verbal device through which something familiar is made to appear strange - 'making strange' as Volosinov would put it.
