Pragmatist Semantics

A Use-Based Approach to Linguistic Representation

Beschreibung

José L. Zalabardo defends a pragmatist account of the meaning of central semantic discourses-ascriptions of truth, of propositional attitudes, and of meanings. On Zalabardo's account, what makes the sentences of these discourses have the meanings they have are the procedures that regulate their acceptance and rejection.
