(1974) The philosophy of language, Dordrecht, Springer.
It has been said that philosophy in the twentieth century is characterized by "the linguistic turn."1 This means generally that in our century all philosophy (or at least philosophy in the Anglo-Saxon countries) has become essentially philosophy of language. More specifically, this linguistic turn implies that fruitful talk about reality is possible only if first of all we concern ourselves with the language in which that reality is accessible to us.
