Taylor C: The Language Animal

The Language Animal

The Full Shape of the Human Linguistic Capacity

"A novel epistemology of science contends that good science need not attain its aims, but it must justify its claims. In Heart of Science, philosopher Jacob Stegenga breaks with the most dominant epistemologies of science to argue that in judging scientific activity, we should focus on its justification, not the achievement of truth or knowledge. Yet, Stegenga argues, the aim of science goes far beyond justification and is, instead, a special kind of truth-common knowledge, a broadly shared and mutually justified scientific finding. Drawing on both historical examples and recent events like the COVID-19 pandemic, Stegenga outlines his approach before delving into its implications for scientific evaluation, testimony, values, progress, and credit, as well as the nature of science during times of crisis. Truth, he shows, may not be easily identified in the short term. However, an evaluation of scientific justification, grounded in shared standards, is possible. This framework helps us appraise-and appreciate-historical theories that ultimately weren't accurate and offers fresh insights about appropriate science communication and public trust in scientific research. Justification and scientific rigor are not just means to an end, Stegenga writes, but the very heart of good science. Ambitious, authoritative, and accessible, Heart of Science offers a new vision for the philosophy of science"--

Language Acts and Worldmaking

This volume examines the politics of language teaching and learning, providing a critical appraisal of the institutional, political and professional issues around language teaching and learning. It specifically focuses on how these issues have shaped recent provision at universities, using the UK as a case study, revealing consequences relevant for language departments around the world. By exploring the interface between language policies and strategies and the ways in which these impact the experiences of learning and teaching, this book highlights the complexities at play in language education at tertiary level. Like all the volumes in the Language Acts and Worldmaking series, the overall aim is two-fold: to challenge widely-held views about language learning as a neutral instrument of globalisation and to innovate and transform language research, teaching and learning, together with Modern Languages as an academic discipline, by foregrounding its unique form of cognition and critical engagement. Specific aims are to: · propose new ways of bridging the gaps between those who teach and research languages and those who learn and use them in everyday contexts from the professional to the personal · put research into the hands of wider audiences · share a philosophy, policy and practice of language teaching and learning which turns research into action · provide the research, experience and data to enable informed debates on current issues and attitudes in language learning, teaching and research · share knowledge across and within all levels and experiences of language learning and teaching · showcase exciting new work that derives from different types of community activity and is of practical relevance to its audiences · disseminate new research in languages that engages with diverse communities of language practitioners.

A timely, comprehensive and compelling exploration of the politics of language teaching and learning in higher education.

Routledge Contemporary Introductions to Philosophy

This popular coursebook offers an accessible introduction to issues in the philosophy of mind, including the mind-body problem, causal interactions between the mental and the physical, computational models of thought, and assorted -isms, including: behaviorism, dualism, eliminativism, emergentism, functionalism, materialism, neutral monism, and panpsychism.Updates to the Fifth Edition include a new chapter on AI and a revised chapter on eliminativism, externalism and extended mind. In addition, Chapter Summaries and five Discussion Questions now appear at the end of each chapter to highlight key concepts and facilitate meaningful classroom dialogues.The aim of the Fifth Edition, however, remains the same as the previous four: to offer a clear and engaging, relevant, and metaphysically grounded introduction to philosophy of mind. Philosophy majors and other advanced undergraduate students will, after finishing the book, have a solid grasp of problems central to this field and know where to turn next for the most promising avenues of further inquiry.Key Updates to the Fifth Edition<ul> <li>A chapter on Davidson's 'radical interpretation' has been replaced by a chapter on artificial intelligence, reflecting a growing interest in this area.</li> <li>New sections on 'content externalism' and the 'extended mind' have been added to the chapter on eliminativism.</li> <li>Revisions to all existing chapters, with the addition or expansion of important topics and the elimination of some less relevant material, make the book more reader-friendly without sacrificing rigor and accuracy.</li> <li>New Chapter Summaries and Discussion Questions appear after each chapter to cultivate productive student dialogue in the classroom.</li> <li>Updates to Suggested Reading lists at the end of each chapter and the Reference list at the back of the book.</li> </ul>

Philosophers and their Critics

A wide-ranging engagement with one of contemporary epistemology's most influential thinkers Hilary Kornblith is one of the world's leading philosophers theorizing about knowledge and related issues. A key figure in the naturalized epistemology tradition, Kornblith integrates traditional empiricism with contemporary cognitive science, rejecting inward-looking, first-person approaches in favor of a third-person, scientifically grounded perspective on mind and knowledge. Kornblith's contributions have reshaped debates about the nature and structure of knowledge, justification, and epistemic normativity; he has challenged the legitimacy of conceptual analysis and the reliability of reflection and reasoning, besides charting and defending a mature and self-consciously naturalistic philosophical methodology. By exploring this terrain, Kornblith and His Critics offers an in-depth examination of some of the most unique and innovative work in the last 40 years of anglophone epistemology. This volume brings together fifteen original essays by leading philosophers engaging with Kornblith's work, each written specifically for this collection. Organized into three main thematic sections - Knowledge and Justification, Reflection and Inference, and Naturalism and Methodology - the collection systematically traces and tests the implications of Kornblith's work across key debates. The volume also includes a substantial reply from Kornblith, offering his own response to the critical challenges raised by the incisive contributions. Kornblith and His Critics is ideal for graduate and advanced undergraduate philosophy students, especially those taking a variety of courses on epistemology and philosophical methodology. Key features include: <ul> <li>A complete and detailed overview of how Kornblith's work compares with, and contributes to, key debates in epistemology.</li> <li>Cutting-edge engagement with the foundations, nature, and future of naturalized epistemology.</li> <li>Thorough discussion of core issues in epistemology: from the nature of knowledge, justification, and inference to the epistemic value of reflection and conceptual analysis.</li> <li>A lengthy and unique reply by Hilary Kornblith, directly addressing the critical challenges raised by the incisive contributions.</li> <li>A systematic and thematic structure for easy integration into graduate and upper-level undergraduate courses.</li> </ul> Kornblith and His Critics is a vital resource for researchers and instructors within philosophy programs in both MA and PhD curricula, as well as general readers interested in post-analytic and empirically-informed philosophy.

Oxford Handbooks

The Oxford Handbook of Philosophy of Linguistics

Why do we care about writing well? Should we worry about how to write prose that's true, good and beautiful? Perhaps we need to dismantle our idea of what truth, goodness and beauty mean in the first place. This is one of the ideas at the heart of this open access book - that the common concepts defining the act of writing are overdue a reconsideration. For 2400 years philosophers have written meditations, aphorisms, handbooks, essays, letters, confessions, stories, plays, diatribes, and dialogues. Setting out a new way of looking at the role of writing in philosophical enquiry, David Arndt explains how writing has always been the act of thinking on paper - a meditative practice integral to the search for wisdom. He describes how different kinds of thought - demonstrative, interpretive, narrative and perspectival - are expressed in different genres of writing, breaking down the highest questions of philosophy in clear and witty terms. This is both a meditation and a practical guide, with the book's final section setting out fifty principles of composition to demonstrate how these theoretical insights can in turn guide the way we actually write. These principles will help readers to become better writers and, in the process, become better thinkers. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.
