Concepts, Language, and Privacy: An Argument "Vaguely Viennese in Provenance."
Levy, David K.
Language and Cognitive Processes, v18 n5-6 p693-723 Oct-Dec 2003
Considers two notable recent philosophical theories of concepts in relation to some challenges set by Wittgenstein in his notorious private language argument. The challenge is formulated in terms of constraints on the explanation of the relation between thought and language. Shows how these theories of concepts relate to constraints that arise from this challenge. (Author/VWL)
