Frontmatter -- Table of Contents -- Introduction -- Moorean Paradoxes, Assertion, and Certainty -- Meaning Holism and Contextualism[s]: Friends or Foes? -- On the Nature of Non-Doxastic Disagreement about Taste -- Why the Basic Problem Is Not a Problem -- Gettier Cases, Warranted Assertability Maneuvers, and the Fourth Condition -- Self vs Other? Social Cognition, Extended Minds, and Self-Rule -- Articulating Context-Dependence: Ad Hoc Cognition in the Prototype Theory of Concepts -- Success and Knowledge in Action: Saving Anscombe’s Account of Intentionality -- De Re Explanation of Action in Context, the Problem of ‘Near-Contraries’ and Belief Fragmentation -- The Role of Presuppositions and Default Implicatures in Framing Effects -- Transcending the Situation: On the Context-dependence of Practice-based Cognition -- Indirect Relations and Frames: Coreference in Context -- Author‘s Index -- Subject Index
Summary: The phenomenon of context dependence is so multifaceted that it is tempting to classify it as hetergenous. It is especially evident in the case of the difference between context dependence as understood in the philosophy of language and context dependence as understood in the philosophy of mind. One of the aims of the present volume is to show that as varied as the phenomenon of context dependence is, the similarities between its different manifestations are profound and undeniable. More importantly, as evidenced in a number of papers presented on the subsequent pages of this volume, a broad perspective on the phenomenon of context dependence helps us to re-apply theories devised for one of the subfields of philosophy to the other subfields. Since the connections and analogies between many uses of contextualism may not be initially obvious, keeping an open perspective and the willingness to learn from the work of others may sometimes be crucial for finding new, satisfactory solutions.
