描述 | In .The Natural Background to Meaning. Denkel argues thatmeaning in language is an outcome of the evolutionary development offorms of animal communication, and explains this process bynaturalising the Locke-Grice approach. The roots of meaning arecontained in observable regularities, which are manifestations ofobjective connections such as essences and causal relations. Denkel‘sparticularistic ontology of properties and causation leads to a viewof time that harmonises B-theory with transience. Time‘s passage, heargues, is a necessary condition of communication and meaning. .The book connects some central topics in the philosophies of language,science and ontology, treating them within the framework of a singletheory. It will interest not only professional philosophers doingresearch on meaning, universals, causation and time, but alsostudents, who can consult it as a textbook examining Grice‘s theory ofmeaning. |
