This volume brings together older and more recent texts by G. Veloudis, for the conclusion of the publication cycle to which they initially belonged unveiled a shared, albeit latent, focus on human subjectivity. The expansion of subjectivity to its most typical linguistic aspect, i.e. epistemic modality, is the starting point of this new and more coherent – from the point of view of human subjectivity – endeavor; its closing point, on the other hand, forms a first attempt at producing a visual representation of the most typical aspects of epistemic modality.
