Every philosophical involvement with language centres on the notion
of representation. There is controversy over what language
represents. The answers can be classified and used as a basis for a
systematic survey: 1. Language represents the world.2. Language
does not represent the world but our ideas of the world.3. Language
represents our ideas (of the world) badly.4. Language not only
represents badly; it does not represent anything.5. Without
language there would be no representation of a higher order and
thus no thought. The main intention behind this introduction to
linguistic philosophy lies in revealing the underlying ordering
principle for the many simultaneous and non-simultaneous attempts
at a philosophy of language.
