Meaning, Context, and Non-Doxastic Attitudes
This special issue consists of papers selected from those presented at the 6th Philosophy of Language and Mind Conference held at the University of Warsaw in September 2022. The selection is based on the nominations by the representatives of the institutions gathered in the Philosophy of Language and Mind network (PLM). Although it reflects the diversity of topics discussed at the conference, it also captures key themes from the conference. All the papers focus on semantic or pragmatic issues connected with meaning: the pragmatic lexicon, polysemy, spatial indexicals, assertions and uninformative content, non-doxastic attitude reports, literalism in autistic people and embodied accounts of inferential capacity.
