Summary/Abstract: The encounter with foreign elements and the teaching of a foreign language, the taking in possession of the foreignness out of the own perspective, the imprisonment in the own capability to judge somebody else and whatever is different, as well as the limited quality of the own perception, are all constant characteristics of human behaviour which would not ever perish and which are in fact the major theme of this article.
