Perspectival Thought: A Plea for (Moderate) Relativism
Recanati, Francois (, Director of Research, CNRS (Institut Jean-Nicod), and Arche Professorial Fellow, University of St Andrews.)
Francois Recanati presents a ground-breaking study of the context-dependence of our language and thought. He argues that our linguistic and mental representations alike must be assigned two layers of content: the explicit content, which is relative and perspectival, and the complete content, which is absolute and involves contextual factors.
