Inquiries into Truth and Interpretation by Donald Davidson
Now in a new edition, this volume updates Davidson's exceptional Inquiries into Truth and Interpretation (1984), which set out his enormously influential philosophy of language. The original volume remains a central point of reference, and a focus of controversy, with its impact extending intolinguistic theory, philosophy of mind, and epistemology. Addressing a central question--what it is for words to mean what they do--and featuring a previously uncollected, additional essay, this work will appeal to a wide audience of philosophers, linguists, and psychologists.
Davidson, Donald: - Donald Davidson was a professor of English at Vanderbilt University. As a member of the Nashville Fugitive group of poets he was one of the founders and editors of their magazine, The Fugitive, 1922-1925. With Allen Tate, John Crowe Ransom, Robert Penn Warren, Stark Young, John Gould Fletcher, Frank L. Owsley, and other Southerners, he contributed to I'll Take My Stand: The South and Agrarian Tradition, a significant work dealing with the problems of the South, published in 1930.
