Sobre el riesgo de confundir el lenguaje cósmico de Kandinsky con el lenguaje divino del obispo Berkeley

According to Philippe Sers, both Wassily Kandinsky and George Berkeley considered the world as a language that speaks to us about spiritual things which lie at the botton of the human soul. In this paper, however, I aim to show that Sers’s remark is confused and even misleading. To be precise, I will show there is room for the idea of the world as language in Berkeley’s divine language but not in Kandisnky’s cosmic language, whilst the remark according to which the aforementioned language speaks to us about spiritual things which lie at the botton of our souls can be attributed to a greater extent to Kandinsky —even though strictly speaking cosmic language would not be a “language”— rather than to Berkeley.
