This anthology investigates how, through critical engagement, Davidson's philosophy and Chinese philosophy can jointly contribute to the common philosophical enterprise and shows how such comparative ...methodology of constructive engagement is important or even indispensable in general philosophical inquiry.
Donald Davidson (1917-2003) est considéré comme l’un des plus grands philosophes américains du XXe siècle. Au cœur de sa doctrine se trouve une conception profondément originale de la nature du ...langage et de ses relations avec la pensée, qui a eu des répercussions dans tous les domaines de la philosophie et de nombreux secteurs des sciences humaines. Daniel Laurier offre ici une analyse et une évaluation des principales positions du philosophe américain sur la question de l’interprétation du langage et de la pensée, ouvrant celles-ci à une réflexion plus vaste sur des notions centrales en philosophie du langage et de l’esprit : le holisme, la nature des règles, celle de la rationalité, le caractère social du langage, enfin la possibilité d’une conception naturaliste de l’esprit. Ce livre captivera les philosophes du langage et de l’esprit et ceux qui souhaitent approfondir leur compréhension de la philosophie de Davidson. Il nourrira la réflexion de tous ceux qui se questionnent sur les fondements des sciences humaines.

The question of the relativity of interpretations and the relevance of the author's intentions for interpretation has been at the center of controversy for the past century in different philosophical ...traditions, but there has been very little effort to examine the different ways this question has been addressed in contemporary philosophy within the space of a single book. Relativism and Intentionalism in Interpretation. Davidson, Hermeneutics, and Pragmatism brings diverse philosophical viewpoints to bear on these issues, addressing them through analytic philosophy, hermeneutics, and pragmatism. Kalle Puolakka develops a view of interpretation drawing on Donald Davidson's late philosophy of language and mind defending the role of authorial intentions against criticisms intentionalist views have received particularly in hermeneutics and pragmatism. In addition to relativism and intentionalism, the book discusses such issues as the role of imagination and aesthetic experience in interpretation, and it presents a thorough critique of hermeneutic conceptions of interpretation which emphasize the essential historical nature of our understanding. Relativism and Intentionalism in Interpretation shows how it is possible to combine a pluralistic attitude towards art without resurrecting the role of the author's intentions in interpretation.
This book examines both Quines and Davidsons views on underdetermination and language and argues underdetermination provides an epistemological basis for pluralism by justifying alternative world ...views or conceptual schemes in science.
