New Essays on Singular Thought presents ten new, specially written
essays on an issue central to philosophy of mind, language, and
perception: the nature of our thought about the external world.
Is our thought about objects in the world always descriptive,
mediated by our conceptions of those objects? Or is some of our
thought somehow more direct, singular, associated more intimately
with our perceptual, linguistic, and socially mediated relations to
them? Leading experts in the field contributing to this volume make
the case for the singularity of thought and debate a broad spectrum
of issues it raises, including the structure of singular thought,
the role of acquaintance in perception- and communication-based
reference, the semantics of fictional and mythical terms, and the
merits of epistemic, cognitive, and linguistic conditions on
singular thought. Their essays explore new directions for future
research and will be an important resource for anyone working at
the interface of semantics and mental representation.
