abstract = {[first paragraph] Plato and Augustine reach points in their writing where problems of language become fused in a single problem, indeed a crisis, concerning the language they are using. Plato's Meno and Augustir{\~{}}e's Confessions have at their centers deliberations in which philosophical inquiry and the a{\&}ieve- ment of self-knowledge are found to be equally difficult. The treatment of the knoMedge-paradox in the Meno and the struggle with the nature of memory and time in Books X and XI of the Confessions begin with impasse in regard to the very meaning of asking questions, and move toward a resolution that invites a renewal of language upon new grounds. Examining each of these works at close range will open a view into the linguistic form of self-awareness in philosophy.},
