Abstract | In this paper, I discuss language learning in Wittgenstein and Davidson. Starting from a remark by Bakhurst, I hold that both Wittgenstein and Davidson's philosophies of language contain responses to the problem of language learning, albeit of a different form. Following Williams, I hold that the concept of language learning can explain Wittgenstein's approach to the normativity of meaning in the "Philosophical Investigations". Turning to Davidson, I hold that language learning can, equally, explain Davidson's theory of triangulation. I sketch an account of triangulation as Davidson's response to the problem of the normativity of meaning and explain the role that language learning plays in this account. (As Provided). |
