Summary/Abstract: Behind the triumph of communication in nowaday times there is a very important change that indicates a modification of paradigm, according to Kuhn’s theory, or, maybe, a shift of episteme according to Foucault ideas. If for the modern philosophy the knowledge builds reality (Kant), for our postmodern world rather communication constructs reality (linguistic turn). Great shift, in the postmodern world is passing from a culture of knowledge to a culture of communication. However, in antiquity and modernity, wisdom was always defined as a reference to Being, from the less pronounced or more pronounced perspective of knowledge. Our problem now is: what is the wisdom of communication?
