The debate about semantic externalism is one of the most important but difficult topics in philosophy of mind and language, and has consequences for our understanding of the role of social institutions and the physical environment in constituting language and the mind. In this long-needed book, Jesper Kallestrup provides an invaluable map of the problem. Beginning with a thorough introduction to the theories of descriptivism and referentialism and the work of Frege and Kripke, Kallestrup moves on to analyse Putnam's Twin Earth argument, Burge's arthritis argument and Davidson's Swampman argument. He also discusses how semantic externalism is at the heart of important topics such as indexical thoughts, epistemological skepticism, self-knowledge, and mental causation. Including chapter summaries, a glossary of terms, and an annotated guide to further reading, Semantic Externalism an ideal guide for students studying philosophy of language and philosophy of mind. 410 0$aNew problems of philosophy. 606 $aSemantics (Philosophy) 606 $aLanguage and languages$xPhilosophy 606 $aExternalism (Philosophy of mind) 606 $aDescription (Philosophy) 606 $aReference (Philosophy) 615 0$aSemantics (Philosophy) 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aExternalism (Philosophy of mind) 615 0$aDescription (Philosophy) 615 0$aReference (Philosophy) 676 $a121/.68 686 $a5,1$2ssgn 686 $aCC 4800$2rvk 686 $aCC 5500$2rvk 700 $aKallestrup$b Jesper.$0889526 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910960287703321 996 $aSemantic externalism$94490620 997 $aUNINA
