課程概述 |
This course is the fourth (in fact, the last) of the series of tutorial based courses on fundamental topics in the philosophy of language and logic. As I have remarked in the introduction to the series, I have chosen as the starting point the course ‘Theories of Reference’, and then two courses The Concept of Existence and Theories of Truth follow. I would then expect that the interested student may have already had a nodding acquaintance with the philosophical concepts of reference, truth, and existence, and related issues. In particular, the student should have some brief ideas about what a theory of reference/truth/existence is intended to do and may have some background knowledge of the main theses of and disputes between different philosophers/schools with regard to the philosophical issues related to these concepts. |

課程目標 |
The main concern of this course is to pay further attention to the most fundamental issue: Granted that a sentence is true, what does the sentence mean when it is stated, or asserted? From a philosophical point of view, to answer a question of this kind, we need to have clear picture of what the concept of meaning is. It is the main burden of this course to give a brief introduction to a variety of conceptions of meaning and to various different approaches to a theory of meaning. |

課程要求 |
The course is essentially tutorial-based. Each week, a classical paper, or a chapter in a classical book, is assigned as a required reading. But no problem sheet will be distributed. The student has to write a 3-5 pages summary of the assigned readings together with remarks and/or discussions on two interesting points or issues. Students will have a two-on one or one-on one tutorial each week and a two-hour class to discuss/lecture about the topics in the assigned reading. [Time for tutorials will be individually arranged weekly.] The course will be divided into four units. And after the completion of each unit, students are asked to write an essay on some related issues/topics. |
