Meaning by means of meaning? by no means!
Erkenntnis, 1975Analyses of what it is for an utterance-type to have meaning in a language may, as those of Grice1, Lewis2, Schiffer3, and Bennett4, try to start from what it is for a speaker to mean something by an utterance. If they analyse this latter concept completely in terms of the speaker's intentions as the authors cited do they arrive at something like a gap

The Leading Edge, 2008
A couple of years ago I read an explanation of the derivation of interval velocities from sonic logs. This had been conceived by a colleague of mine who had somehow missed the simplicity of the operation by looking at the geophysicist's preferred entity, velocity, rather than the more convenient entity, slowness (or “transit time” of well logs, usually

On Meaning, Meaning and Meaning
2005AbstractTo understand how language works, one must first look to the cooperative functions that various language forms perform, understanding these on a biological model as what these forms accomplish that keeps them in circulation. Next, one should look at language mechanics, at how language forms perform their functions, and especially to the ...

Sharing Meanings about Embodied Meaning
The Journal of Speculative Philosophy, 2008There is a motivation behind many contemporary projects in philosophy to restore the body?traditionally denigrated, ignored, or both?to a place of significance. Given philosophy's recent focus on language and perennial interest in the very nature of thought, one consequence of this body-centered inquiry is the recognition of how embodiment shapes both ...

There are many different ways to use the term meaning. It is modified by such adjectives as subjective, objective, universal, referential, pragmatic, mathematical, context-bound, context-free, shared, and taken-as-shared, to name a few. Such modifying adjectives could lead one to suspect that the word meaning is not very meaningful or is even ...

Literal meaning, conventional meaning and first meaning
Erkenntnis, 1994Literal meaning is often identified with conventional meaning. In ‘A Nice Derangement of Epitaphs’ Donald Davidson argues (1) that literal meaning is distinct from conventional meaning, and (2) that literal meaning is identical to what he calls ‘first meaning’.

I have been arguing for an account of language and of God that will free us from essentialist-correspondentist metaphysics, as well as from the sense of limitation one may feel so long as one remains in the grip of metaphysical assumptions. Toward that end, the previous chapter advanced two lines of argument: first, that concepts are a species of norm,

Utterer’s Meaning, Sentence-Meaning, and Word-Meaning
1968My aim in this paper is to throw light on the connection between (a) a notion of meaning which I want to regard as basic, viz. that notion which is involved in saying of someone that by (when) doing such-and-such he meant that so-and-so (in what I have called a non-natural sense of the word ‘meant’), and (b) the notions of meaning involved in saying (i)
