The translation is a matter of interpreters, professional translators as well as researchers in language. Yet it is also a matter of philosophers that has never ceased to be questioned by Philosophy itself since the nineteenth century. Today, the philosophical debate about the translation intersects the research on its ethical power, hence its definition as a “paradigm of linguistic hospitality”. Does this definition completely explain the plurality of languages as well as their specificity? The essay tries to deal with this issue proving that translation offers a possibility to understand the experience of exchange among several cultures.
