The paper aims to present the idea of language as conceived by Mario Ruggenini in his writing. It will first analyse the relationship of this idea with, on the one hand, (a) the philosophical period (distinguished by the so-called linguistic turn) that characterised the years in which Ruggenini composed his major works – in particular I fenomeni e le parole (1992) –, and, on the other hand, (b) with the current philosophical debate on language and on the correlation between language and thought. Subsequently, the paper will reflect on how Ruggenini’s thought is connected, in a critical way, to Heidegger’s and to the hermeneutical-philosophical tradition; (2) on Ruggenini’s critique of ancient and, more importantly, modern philosophical tendencies of understanding the relationship between thought and language in terms of “objectivisation” and “exteriorisation”; (3) on his critical distance from any kind of reductionism and any “referentialist” approach to meaning.
