The Inessential Indexical: On the Philosophical Insignificance of Perspective and the First Person
ISBN: 9780199686742 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. When we represent the world in language, in thought, or in perception, we often represent it from a perspective. We say and think that the meeting is happening now, that it is hot here, that I am in danger and not you; that the tree looks larger from my perspective than from yours. The Inessential Indexical is an exploration and defense of the view that perspectivality is a philosophically shallow aspect of the world. Cappelen and Dever oppose one of the most entrenched and dominant trends in contemporary philosophy: that perspective (and the perspective of the first person in particular) is...

Language Turned on Itself: The Semantics and Pragmatics of Metalinguistic Discourse
ISBN: 9780199231195 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 148 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Language Turned on Itself examines what happens when language becomes self-reflexive; when language is used to talk about language. Those who think, talk, and write about language are habitual users of various metalinguistic devices, but reliance on these devices begins early: kids are told, 'That's called a "rabbit"'. It's not implausible that a primitive capacity for the meta-linguistic kicks in at the beginning stages of language acquisition. But no matter when or how frequently these devices are invoked, one thing is clear: they present theorists of language with a complex data pattern....

Fixing Language: An Essay on Conceptual Engineering
ISBN: 9780198814719 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Herman Cappelen investigates how language and other representational devices can go wrong, and how to fix them. We use language to understand and talk about the world, but what if our language has deficiencies that prevent it from playing that role? How can we revise our concepts, and what are the limits on revision?

Philosophy Without Intuitions
ISBN: 9780198703020 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The claim that contemporary analytic philosophers rely extensively on intuitions as evidence is almost universally accepted in current meta-philosophical debates and it figures prominently in our self-understanding as analytic philosophers. No matter what area you happen to work in and what views you happen to hold in those areas, you are likely to think that philosophizing requires constructing cases and making intuitive judgments about those cases. This assumption also underlines the entire experimental philosophy movement: only if philosophers rely on intuitions as evidence are data about...

Context and Communication
ISBN: 9780198733065 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Context and Communication offers an introduction to a central theme in the study of language: the various ways in which what we say (or ask, or think) depends on the context of speech and thought. The period since 1970 has produced a vast literature on this topic, both by philosophers and by linguists. It is one of the areas of philosophy (and linguistics) where most progress has been made over the last few decades. This book explores some of the central data, questions, concepts, and theories of context sensitivity. It is written to be accessible to someone with no prior knowledge...

Relativism and Monadic Truth
ISBN: 9780199560554 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 170 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Relativism has dominated many intellectual circles, past and present, but the twentieth century saw it banished to the fringes of mainstream analytic philosophy. Of late, however, it is making something of a comeback within that loosely configured tradition, a comeback that attempts to capitalize on some important ideas in foundational semantics. Relativism and Monadic Truth aims not merely to combat analytic relativism but also to combat the foundational ideas in semantics that led to its revival. Doing so requires a proper understanding of the significance of possible worlds semantics, an...

Liberating Content
ISBN: 9780199641338 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This volume brings together two series of papers: one began with Herman Cappelen and Ernie Lepore's 1997 paper 'On an Alleged Connection Between the Theory of Meaning and Indirect Speech'. The other series started with their 1997 paper 'Varieties of Quotation'. The central theme throughout is that only when communicative content is liberated from semantic content will we make progress in understanding language, communication, contexts, and their interconnection. These are the papers in which Cappelen and Lepore introduced speech act pluralism and semantic minimalism, and they provide the...

Making AI Intelligible: Philosophical Foundations
ISBN: 9780192894724 / Angielski / Twarda / 2021 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Can humans and artificial intelligences share concepts and communicate? Making AI Intelligible shows that philosophical work on the metaphysics of meaning can help answer these questions. Herman Cappelen and Josh Dever use the externalist tradition in philosophy to create models of how AIs and humans can understand each other. In doing so, they illustrate ways in which that philosophical tradition can be improved. The questions addressed in the book are not only theoretically interesting, but the answers have pressing practical implications. Many important decisions about human life are...

Conceptual Engineering and Conceptual Ethics
ISBN: 9780198801856 / Angielski / Twarda / 2020 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Conceptual engineering and conceptual ethics are branches of philosophy concerned with questions about how to assess and ameliorate our representational devices (such as concepts and words). It's a part of philosophy concerned with questions about which concepts we should use (and why), how concepts can be improved, when concepts should be abandoned, and how proposals for amelioration can be implemented. Central parts of the history of philosophy have engaged with these issues, but the focus of this volume is on applications to work in contemporary philosophy of language and mind,...
