It examines Searle's work in relation to current issues of central significance, including internalism versus externalism about mental and linguistic content, truth-conditional versus non-truth-conditional conceptions of content, the relative priorities of thought and language in the explanation of intentionality, the status of the distinction between force and sense in the theory of meaning, the issue of meaning scepticism in relation to rule-following, and the proper characterization of 'what is said' in relation to the semantics/pragmatics distinction. Written by a distinguished team of contemporary philosophers, and prefaced by an illuminating essay by Searle, the volume aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of Searle's work in philosophy of language, and to suggest innovative approaches to fundamental questions in that area. 600 10 Searle, John R. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79055656 650 0 Language and languages |xPhilosophy. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85074574 700 1 Tsohatzidis, Savas L., |d1955- |eeditor. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n88164268 730 0 Cambridge University Press. |pPhilosophy. 776 08 |iPrint version: |z9780521866279
