It has three parts, corresponding to three approaches that I wish to take. These are approaches from analytic philosophy (A), continental philosophy (B), and Chinese linguistics and cultural studies (C). (A) Firstly, I will concentrate on Putnam’s essay “The Meaning of ‘Meaning’” and the discussions of internalism versus externalism that it has given rise to. In particular, I wish to discuss the views of Tyler Burge, Dennett, Searle, and others that can be found in the collection The Twin Earth Chronicles. I will tend to argue for the internalist side, trying to find out how far one can get with it. Secondly, I will further develop my work onWittgenstein and meaning. There, equally, I will take the internalist side. In particular, I will apply the conceptual framework of Kant’s Critique of the Power of Judgment to cast light on the notion of meaning and rule following also from the aesthetic side. (B) The Searle-Putnam dispute about internalism and externalism has parallels in the Husserl-Frege dispute about meaning that took place almost one hundred years ago. Husserl, and most other phenomenologists, can be seen as developing an internalist theory of meaning. Husserl and Merleau-Ponty have built on Kant, and this has led to aspects from transcendental philosophy being brought into conceptions of representation and meaning. This is the continental side that I wish to add to the analytic approach (A). Wittgenstein already is between (A) and (B). (C) The third approach to theories of representation, meaning, and language that I wish to take stands diagonal to the previous two. It takes the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis as a starting point and builds on linguistics and cultural studies. I want to add some empirical facts to the otherwise rather abstract philosophical discussions of (A) and (B). In this part it is not language in general, but particular languages, such as Chinese in contrast to Latin and Ancient Greek that I will focus on in order to cast light on the nature of mind, representation, and meaning in general. I also wish to organize an international Kant conference focusing on Kant’s idealism and its notion of appearance versus the thing in itself.表象、意義與語言(2/3)
