Book Description.
Tyler Burge has produced groundbreaking work on the semantics of proper
names and indexicals, de re belief, formal truth theories, semantic and
epistemic paradoxes, the philosophy of Gottlob Frege, and other areas of
the philosophy of language and of mind. But he is best known for his
arguments for anti-individualism, or externalism about mental content.
Burge's aim in pursuing anti-individualism is nothing less than the
solution to some of the most trenchant metaphysical and epistemological
problems, including the nature of objectivity and norms, the force of
skeptical arguments, apriority, and the nature of the self. Central to
all of these is an account of intentional content that includes a
penetrating critique of the empiricist notion of a concept. This book
focuses mainly on Burge's work on anti-individualism. In it, various
philosophers either comment on Burge's work or relate it to their own.
An unusual feature is the generosity--both in volume and content--of
Burge's contribution to this philosophical conversation. The section
containing his responses comprises the most sustained, detailed, and
interconnected body of writing that he has published in one place.
