Meaning and the Emergence of Normativity
International Journal of Philosophical Studies 18 (3):415-431 (2011)
| Abstract | Linguistic meaning has an essential normative dimension that prima facie cannot be reduced to descriptive, non-normative, terms. Taking this point for granted, this paper however aims at proposing a naturalist view of semantics - inspired by Wilfrid Sellars' original works - focused on the way the constitutive normative aspects of meaning might be properly explained and accounted for, rather than eliminated | |||||||||
