Chapter 7: MY DIALOGUE WITH DIALOGUE.

This chapter examines the concept of dialogue. The works of philosopher Martin Buber, on dialogue, have an important part in the studies of the author on dialogue, in particular in examining the ontology of the between or relationship that Buber articulated in his writings on I-Thou and I-It. Concepts such as confirmation, individuation, image, wholeness, free person, otherness, imagining the self, monologue versus dialogue, sphere of between, unification and genuine dialogue are addressed in this chapter.
