description: Toward a Philosophy of the Act contains the first occurrences of themes that occupied Bakhtin throughout his long career. The topics of authoring, responsibility, self and other, the moral significance of 'outsideness, ' participatory thinking, the implications for the individual subject of having 'no-alibi in existence, ' the difference between the world as experienced in actions and the world as represented in discourse - all are broached here in the heat of discovery. This is the 'heart of the heart' of Bakhtin, the center of the dialogue between being and language, the world and mind, 'the given' and 'the created' that forms the core of Bakhtin's distinctive dialogism.
