Description
The philosophy of language has emerged in the 20th century as a fundamental area of philosophic inquiry. It is unquestionably central to research in many other areas, and some have even suggested that it should now be seen as the foundation of philosophy. This volume, a sequel to "Contemporary Perspectives in the Philosophy of Language", published in 1979, incorporates essays by leading figures in the field, essays that touch on a large number of the most pressing concerns of contemporary philosophers of language.
