Hence, we will inquire into the paradigm shifts in the condition of thought due to the invention of different technologies of cognition. Or put it otherwise, borrowing a notion of Gilles Deleuze (1968, pp.169 \u2013 217), we will look into three different \u201cimages of thought\u201d: the boundaries that define what can be thought and how it can be thought.<br \/>\n<em>Keywords:<\/em> cognition; grammatisation; logocentrism; mechano-centrism; computational technologies; cybernetics.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a style=\"color: #ff0000;\" href=\"https:\/\/azbuki.bg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/philosophy_3s_23_nevena-ivanova.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Open the full text<\/a><\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nevena Ivanova Bulgarian Academy of Sciences \u2013 IPS https:\/\/doi.org\/10.53656\/phil2023-03s-01 Abstract.
