Language and worldview

Více o knize

Exploring the interplay between language and belief, the author delves into the debate on linguistic relativism, focusing on the contrasting views of Thomas Kuhn and Donald Davidson. The analysis centers on how different languages may shape our understanding of scientific truths and conceptual frameworks. By examining their arguments through a non-mentalist semantic lens, the author supports the idea of a "change of perspective" while steering clear of Kuhnian relativism, offering a nuanced perspective on how language influences experience.
