Summary: | The current investigation suggests a new direction for the study of psychology of language, which commonly has a representational approach. In the interface between linguistic studies, philosophy of language and the works by Bergson, Deleuze, and Guattari, as well as Foucault's line of thought, a pragmatic perspective arises. Language ceases being considered an instrument for knowledge of the world and, understood as action, obtains the power to intervene in the world. Initially, the authors introduce language practices that serve as indicators of power and, steered by historical and political circumstances, transform reality. Next, the authors discuss the pragmatic power of words in the creation of new realities. Finally, the authors contend that there is a need to stretch the inventive power of language beyond literature and, through another examination of Bergson's philosophy, propose that language and creation are inseparable. |
