Summary/Abstract: Hans-Georg Gadamer believed that the use of a unique language to disseminate knowledge related to human sciences would be inadequate and impact research on at least four levels as follows: the formulation of knowledge related judgments, the choice of the object of knowledge and of the latter’s eligible target audience. Brexit could be the chance of increasing the likelihood for enhancing the prestige of all European languages as instruments serving knowledge, as well as for using diversity as a value adding tool that underlies the unity of Europe.
