Ester Formation and Hydrolysis and Related Reactions (Volume 10) (Comprehensive Chemical Kinetics, Volume 10)

It is traditional to distinguish sentences from propositions. The distinction is accepted but it is argued that language has an interest in its own right as regards the unity problem insofar as sentences (syntactic structures) encode meaningful unities. Two arguments from Jerry Fodor are considered and rejected that seek to show that the structure and content of sentences are inherited from antecedent thoughts. The first claims that sentences are inexplicit and incomplete relative to their contents. This is true, if we have in mind a ‘surface’ conception of language, but is not at all obvious if by language we mean syntactic structure. Against this latter though, Fodor suggests that thoughts cannot be ambiguous, but their vehicles always can be. In response, it is argued that syntax cannot ever be ambiguous either, for, appropriately conceived, syntax is not vehicular, but a structural condition on mental states. Read more...
