PHIL 1.10 Minds, Meanings, and Images
Most things don’t mean anything. How is it that the contents of language and mental states can mean something? How do images represent or depict their objects? What do different answers to such questions tell us about the nature of minds, consciousness, and representation? What do different answers presuppose about reality and our capacity to know it? This course will focus on historical answers to such questions with an eye toward comparing common reference points in contemporary philosophy.
