内容説明

This is a philosphical treatment of intentionality. It argues for a view of intentional content that is at once Fregean and Kantian in its conception of the relation between the mind and the outside world. Without compromising the external constitution of the mind, it denies the importance and relevance of society and normativity to the intentional as well as the connection between intentionality and truth conditions or reference in the official sense. it offers instead an account of intentional content which is local and contextual.
