Abstract

One of the key concepts and categories of Bakhtin's philosophy, that of the dialogue, was perceived by Bakhtin in different ways. Even if this category acquires its typically "Bakhtinian" sense in his works beginning the 1950s, already Bakhtin's early writings contained some germs of his future "dialogical" thoughts, the category of dialogue being connected with other important notions of Bakhtin's theories.
