David Lewis's philosophy of language
Mind and Language 18 (3):286–295 (2003)
| Abstract | Lewis never saw philosophy of language as foundational in the way that many have. One of the most distinctive features of his work is the robust confidence that questions in metaphysics or mind can be addressed head on, and not through the lens of language. | |||||||||
