The problem of explaining consciousness remains a problem about the meaning of language. This book argues that the problem arises from a quest that has taken shape over the twentieth century, and that the analysis of history provides fresh resources for understanding and resolving it.

Explores the history and significance of the twentieth-century turn to language as a specific object of investigation and resource for philosophical reflection. This title traces the implications of the access to language in some of the most prominent projects and results of the historical and contemporary tradition of analytic philosophy.
