Strawson on Intended Meaning and Context
Strawson proposed in the early seventies an attractive threefold distinction regarding how context bears on the meaning of ‘what is said’ when a sentence is uttered. The proposed scheme is somewhat crude and, being aware of this aspect, Strawson himself raised various points to make it more adequate. In this paper, we review the scheme of Strawson, note his concerns, and add some of our own. Ho...
متن کاملNPI Licensing, Strawson Entailment, and Context Dependency
The Fauconnier-Ladusaw analysis of negative polarity licensing (that NPIs are licensed in the scope of downward entailing operators) continues to be the benchmark theory of negative polarity. In this paper, I consider some of the moves that are needed to maintain its basic intuition in some recalcitrant arenas: negative polarity licensing by only, adversatives, superlatives, and conditionals. W...
متن کاملPresuppositions Can Be Disruptors Too: A Case against Strawson-Entailment
This paper has one main goal, which is a negative one. It aims at showing that the theory of NPI licensing defended in von Fintel (1999) is empirically inadequate. In essence, the theory we’re discussing relies on so-called Strawson-entailment, a device which ensures that weak NPIs are licensed despite the presence of presuppositions. We level two main criticisms against von Fintel’s theory. Fi...
متن کاملResponsibility and the Aims of Theory: Strawson and Revisionism
Strawsonian approaches to responsibility, including more recent accounts such as Dennett’s and Wallace’s, face a number of important objections. However, Strawsonian theories can be recast along revisionist lines so as to avoid many of these problems. In this paper, I explain the revisionist approach to moral responsibility, discuss the concessions it makes to incompatibilism (including the poi...
