The article examines the anthropological relevance of Quine's indeterminacy of translation thesis, and shows how this thesis questions relativism, but also a species of universalism. This is demonstrated through an analysis of Quine's critique of the idea of prelogicity, in connection with which he specifically devised the principle of charity, which was later taken over by Davidson. Examining the uses and scope of this principle, as well as comparing it to the claims of Lévy-Bruhl, may help us to define more precisely what a philosophical anthropology (an idea too often invoked nowadays) should be.
