How do we learn, use, and understand the meaning of words representing sensations? How is the connection between words and sensations structured? How can outward signs of sensations be manifested? What does it mean "to understand someone"? Is semantics affected by inner states? What does one mean when one uses an expression to describe a sensation? How should such success in communication be defined?Grammar, Expressiveness, and Inter-subjective Meanings: Wittgenstein's Philosophy of Psychology deals with these questions, examining the peculiar uses of language-games representing sensations (su

Young researchers, natural advocates of change, often delve freely into language processes, their causes, mechanisms and interrelations with social changes.

L'étude du langage, cette capacité si ordinaire aux humains, si simple à utiliser et si mystérieuse à comprendre a connu récemment une révolution souterraine et presque invisible, tant du point de vue théorique que méthodologique. Les linguistiques dites « cognitives » ont permis de revisiter le rapport entre le langage et la pensée. La « pragmatique », quant à elle, y a réintroduit les enjeux implicites de la communication. Des méthodes et des regards neufs sont venus ouvrir de nouvelles fenêtres sur le langage : l'imagerie cérébrale, le traitement informatisé de corpus de données, l'étude des troubles et dysfonctionnements, celle de la communication précoce chez les nourrissons, la néologie (étude des mots nouveaux), l'analyse des langues rares et en voie de disparition, ou encore l'essor des études sur les origines du langage. Pour rendre compte du renouvellement des théories et des champs de recherche dans le domaine des sciences du langage, ce livre propose un état des savoirs autour de questions clés sur la nature et les origines du langage, mais aussi sur l'apprentissage et l'évolution des langues.
