Normativity between philosophy and science
Recent decades are marked by the upswing of the use of the term “normativity“ not only in philosophical discussions, but increasingly also within reports of empirical scientists. This may invoke the question how far these developments overlap and in how far they go past each other. A significant overlap might lead to an interesting coalescence of the two approaches to norms, which may provide for a ”naturalization” of some philosophical speculati…
Logic as a Science of Patterns
I propose that logic may be seen as a science of patterns—however, not in the sense in which mathematics is a science of patterns, but rather in the sense in which physics is. The proposal is that logic identifies, explores, and fixes the inferential patterns which de facto govern our argumentative practices. It can be seen, I argue, as picking up the patterns and working from them toward the state of reflective equilibrium, where the laws it aim…
Inferentialism Naturalized
Brandom’s inferentialism explains meaning in terms of inferential rules. As he insists that “the normative” (including meanings) is not reducible to “the natural,” inferentialism would seem an unlikely ally of naturalism. However, in this paper I suggest that Brandom’s theory of language harbors insights which can promote a naturalistic theory of meaning and language, and that a naturalistic version of Brandom’s inferentialism might have great po…
Jak filosofovat o lidské mysli
Ve své nové knížce Kauzalita činitele Petr Dvořák argumentuje, že svoboda vůle existuje, a tudíž musíme přijmout nějakou formu indeterminismu; a předkládá návrh odpovídajícího pojmového rámce. Já se naproti tomu domnívám, že ač svoboda vůle skutečně existuje, neměli bychom proto opouštět determinismus; hlásím se tedy k určité formě kompatibilismu. Podle mého druhu kompatibilismu tomu ovšem není tak, že by se svoboda vůle dala vtěsnat do determini…

An Inferentialist Approach to Semantics
The perennial question -What is meaning?- receives many answers. In this paper I present and discuss inferentialism- a recent approach to semantics based on the thesis that to have (such and such) a meaning is to be governed by (such and such) a cluster of inferential rules. I point out that this thesis presupposes that looking for meaning requires seeing language as a social institution (rather than, say, a psychological reality). I also indicat…
The nature of meaning
Part of the philosophy of language of the 20th century is marked by a shift from the view of language as a tool of representing the world to its view as a means of interacting with the world. This shift is common to the later Wittgenstein, to pragmatists and neopragmatists including Brandom, and also to Chomsky and his school. The claim of the paper is that though the Chomskyans have offered an admirably elaborated theory of syntax adequate to th…
Facing Facts
Beyond Rigidity, The Unfinished Semantic Agenda of Naming and Necessity
Topic-focus articulation, tripartite structures, and semantic content (Studies in Linguistics and Philosophy, 71)
Linguistics and Philosophy
L'A. tente de demontrer que l'alliance entre la linguistique et la philosophie, et plus precisement entre la semantique et la metaphysique, est plutot delicate, malgre son caractere apparemment fructueux, dans la mesure ou elle engendre des cercles vicieux dangereux. En effet, les linguistes ont tendance a expliquer certains phenomenes en se basant sur certaines entites ou certaines doctrines philosophiques, dont l'explication repose a son tour s…
Structure and meaning
L'A. classe les theories du langage en deux groupes, selon le lien percu entre une expression et sa signification : l'approche semiotique, qui suppose que la signification ne depend pas de l'appartenance de l'expression au langage ou a un autre systeme de signes, et l'approche structurale, qui suppose que la signification represente la valeur de l'expression et sa position dans le systeme du langage. Il explore ici les idees associees a l'approch…
A Note of New Developments in Czech Linguistics
L'A. decrit deux tendances caracterisant la nouvelle situation linguistique tcheque: 1) Une recherche orientee vers une description du langage dont la base naturelle est l'interactivite et 2) Une analyse approfondie de la pensee linguistique de l'Ecole de Prague. Ces tendances, jusqu'ici reduites a des positions plus ou moins marginales, ont ete reprises apres les changements politiques afin de reaffirmer la position de Prague en tant centre Euro…
