Reference and the Rational Mind Paperback / softback
by Kenneth A. Taylor
Part of the Lecture Notes series
Paperback / softback
Description
Referentialism has underappreciated consequences for our misunderstanding of the ways in which mind, language and world relate to one another.
In exploring these consequences, this book defends a version of referentialism about names, demonstratives and indexicals, in a manner appropriate for scholars and students in philosophy or the cognitive sciences.
To demonstrate his view, Kenneth A. Taylor offers original and provocative accounts of a wide variety of semantic, pragmatic and psychological phenomena, such as empty names, proportional attitude contexts, the nature of concepts, and the ultimate source and nature of normativity.
