Wolfram Hinzen Livres

Exploring the intersection of generative grammar and the human mind, this book lays a foundation for unifying modern generative linguistics with philosophical inquiries into mind and language. Wolfram Hinzen delves into Chomsky's minimalist program, offering insights into how linguistic structures reflect cognitive processes. The work invites readers to consider the implications of language theory on our understanding of human cognition and the nature of thought itself.

Exploring truth through the lens of Noam Chomsky's Minimalist Program, this book presents an innovative perspective on reference and truth as functions of the human mind. It offers an internalist reconstruction of meaning, delving into the implications for language and thought, and challenges traditional notions of truth. The work aims to reshape foundational concepts in the study of semantics and epistemology, making it a significant contribution to philosophical discourse.

The view the author is defending is that reality changes in metaphysically interesting regards if we follow an anti-realistic account of meaning, and that the ontological grounding of the logic of an anti-realist semantics - whatever the logic turns out to be - has to be featured accordingly. Metaphysical and ontological consequences drawn from an anti-realist theory of meaning would thus affect our conception of reality as a whole.
