The rule-following debate, in its concern with the metaphysics and
epistemology of linguistic meaning and mental content, goes to the
heart of the most fundamental questions of contemporary philosophy
of mind and language. This volume gathers together the most
important contributions to the topic, including papers by Simon
Blackburn, Paul Boghossian, Graeme Forbes, Warren Goldfarb, Paul
Horwich, John McDowell, Colin McGinn, Ruth Millikan, Philip Pettit,
George Wilson, Crispin Wright, and Jose Zalabardo. The debate has
centred on Saul Kripke's reading of the rule-following sections in
Wittgenstein and his consequent posing of a sceptical paradox that
threatens our everyday notions of linguistic meaning and mental
content. These essays are attempts to respond to this challenge and
represent some of the most important work in contemporary theory of
meaning. With an introductory essay and a comprehensive guide to
further reading this book is an excellent resource for courses in
philosophy of mind, philosophy of language, Wittgenstein, and
metaphysics, as well as for all philosophers, linguists, and
cognitive scientists with interests in these areas.
