Derived from	20703104 PHILOSOPHY OF LANGUAGE in Philosophy L-5 N0 FERRETTI FRANCESCO (syllabus) From Cartesian grammar to the pragmatics of language This course aims to address one of the classic themes in the philosophy of language: the debate between models that are inspired by the Cartesian-rationalist tradition and theoretical perspectives that, by referring to the actual contexts of language use, promote a view based on the pragmatic aspects of human communication. The aim of the course is to show how this debate has important repercussions on the issue of human nature. (reference books) - Chomsky N. (1988) Linguaggio e problemi della conoscenza.
