Words and meaning

Joseph Mendola

pp. 229-255

This chapter develops a positive sketch of our capacity for meaningful speech, and hence of our capacity for word-mediated thought. More precisely, this chapter sketches an account of how there might be words with both content and meaning. We will soon flesh out this abstract story in coherently conceivable and apparently plausible resources, but it also fits with the alternative account of thought realization pursued in Part Three.
