Excerpt from Thought and Language: An Essay, Having in View the Revival, Correction, and Exclusive Establishment of Locke's Philosophy
Addison speaks the common Opinion when, in Spectator 166, he says, The world is a Copy or tran script Of those ideas which are in the mind of the First Being, and those ideas which are in the mind Of man are a transcript of the world. To this we may add, that words are the transcript of those ideas which are in the mind of man, and that writing or printing is the transcript of words.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book disputes the long-held belief among philosophers that language reflects thought with a one-to-one correspondence. Instead, the author claims that one thought is comprised of many individual distinct parts, and that there is no possible way for language to reflect this directly. The book draws on the work of John Locke, tracing his theory of knowledge back to its roots and re-examining it in the context of modern discoveries about language and brain function. The author scrutinizes the work of later philosophers such as Kant and Hegel, positing that their systems are hypothetical and lack the empirical basis necessary to form stable philosophical ground. Ultimately, the book reframes the question of how language denotes thought, arguing that the imperfections of human language create a need to construct complex expressions that, when completed, become a single representation of a thought or idea.
