  • Open Compositionality
    Eduardo García-Ramírez
    Open Compositionality: Towards a New Methodology of Language argues that natural languages, like English and Spanish, are not only systems of representation useful for communication but also highly interactive cognitive capacities allowing humans to engage in complex forms of cognition.

  • The Geography of Context
    Nicholas Fotion
    When we use language, we presuppose many different things. Context is another name for these presuppositions. But it also can be the name of all these different presuppositions ordered in a certain way. This study of context focuses on the differences since many studies of context focus excessively on usage found in the sciences and in everyday observations. Other uses such as ...

  • OMG
    Mary Ellen Ashcroft
    The plot thickens--in novels and our lives--forcing us from the fairy tale into a bewildering, even heartbreaking narrative. We look at the god we’re holding, and find it too fragile, too brittle to meet reality. Cling tighter? Move on godless? In fact, rejecting a god image (or as C. S. Lewis puts it, allowing God to smash our limited god) opens space for deeper faith in the m...

  • The DNA of the English Language
    Jonathan Dunne
    This revolutionary book sets out to persuade the reader that the English language is not the result of years of haphazard evolution, a chaotic atom-like conglomeration of words, but a carefully planned whole in which each word has its place and is connected by a consistent set of rules. It is not by chance that ‘earth’ is ‘heart’ or ‘soil’ is ‘soul’, for instance, or that ‘salt...

  • Thoughts and Ways of Thinking
    Benjamin Brown
    Why do we think differently from one another? Why do religious people adhere to their faith even against reason, whilst atheist thinkers label it “nonsense”? Why do some judges turn more to moral values and others less? Why do we attach different meanings to the same words?These questions can be tackled on psychological or sociological levels, but we can also analyze the subjec...

    Philip Hogh / Antonia Hofstätter

Yet Adorno’s own philosophy of language has not yet been fully and systematically examined in its own right. Philip Hogh argues that it was in fact the linguistic turn in critical theory that prevented a thorough a...

  • El significado de las palabras
    Javier Iglesias
    El lenguaje es hoy una herramienta para el engaño más que para la comunicación. Es un arma más que una herramienta de entendimiento, y la víctima de espurios negociados, que propicia significados equívocos y ambiguos que favorecen a quienes comercian con la palabra. Por tanto, es un problema capital. La neutralidad y desideologización de las palabras debe ser un principio básic...

Materialists sometimes claim to have grounded aboutness in natural regularities. Attempts have even been made, in library science and information theory, to operationalize the notion. But...

Not only does it inform us of who we are, it also tells us how we should relate to the larger non-human world. The Speaking Animal interrogates the human-animal divide by looking at our linguistic differences - how the speaking hum...
