Brandom, Robert B.,

Making it explicit. Reasoning, Representing, and Discursive Commitment.

This book sets out an alternate approach based on inference, and on a conception of certain kinds of implicit assessment that become explicit in language. Making It Explicit is the first attempt to work out in detail a theory that renders linguistic meaning in terms of use--in short, to explain how semantic content can be conferred on expressions and attitudes that are suitably caught up in social practices. l Harvard University Press.

BRANDOM, ROBERT B.

Tales of the Mighty Dead: Historical Essays in the Metaphysics of Intentionality.

New Haven, Harvard University Press, 2002. 430 pp. Pages 2-13 contain markings with YELLOW HIGHLIGHTER. Else very good. Hardover with dustjacket. Chapter 4: Adequacy and the individuation of ideas in Spinoza's Ethics. A work in the history of systematic philosophy that is itself animated by a systematic philosophic aspiration, this book by one of the most prominent American philosophers working today provides an entirely new way of looking at the development of Western philosophy from Descartes to the present. Brandom begins by setting out a historical context and outlining a methodological rationale for his enterprise. Then, in chapters on Spinoza, Leibniz, Hegel, Frege, Heidegger, and Sellars, he pursues the most fundamental philosophical issues concerning intentionality, and therefore mindedness itself, revealing an otherwise invisible set of overlapping themes and explanatory strategies.
