This book carries forward the discourse on the mind's engagement
with the world. It reviews the semantic and metaphysical debates
around internalism and externalism, the location of content and the
indeterminacy of meaning in language. The volume analyzes the
writings of Jackson, Chomsky, Putnam, Quine, Bilgrami and others,
to reconcile opposing theories of language and the mind. It
ventures into Cartesian ontology and Fregean semantics to
understand how mental content becomes world-oriented in our
linguistic communication. Further, the author explores the liaison
between the mind and the world from the phenomenological
perspective, particularly, Husserl's linguistic turn and
Heidegger's intersubjective entreaty for Dasein. The book conceives
of thought as a biological and socio-linguistic product which
engages with the mind-world question through the conceptual and
causal apparatuses of language. A major intervention in the field
of philosophy of language, this book will be useful for scholars
and researchers interested in philosophy, phenomenology,
epistemology and metaphysics.
