Philosophy of Language in Uruguay : Language, Meaning, and Philosophy Hardback
Edited by Carlos Enrique Caorsi, Ricardo J. Navia
Part of the Philosophy of Language: Connections and Perspectives series
Hardback
Description
In Europe, and later in the United States, the revitalization of the philosophy of language emerged from the need to address certain perplexities concerning formal disciplines and to work out certain complexities found within philosophy.
In Uruguay, however, philosophy of language became limited to a meta-theory about the basic concepts of language.
Edited by Carlos Enrique Caorsi and Ricardo J. Navia, Philosophy of Language in Uruguay: Language, Meaning, and Philosophy presents an anthology of works discussing the different directions in which philosophy of language has developed in Uruguay in the last twenty years.
The present compendium gives a fairly comprehensive and representative picture of how philosophical approaches from a linguistic perspective have developed in this Latin American country.
Uruguayan philosophy has a very small international presence, but includes works worthy of being better known within the philosophical explorations of language as early as the 1900s.
The contributors dissect these explorations through epistemology, linguistics, and argumentation and cognitive sciences to discover how philosophers of language such as Carlos Vaz Ferreira have grown to understand the complexities of language and how it has affected us today.
