This volume investigates the current state of research within the philosophy of language by curating original, high-level contributions to the field. Editors David J. Sosa and Ernest Lepore compile these essays to provide a centralized forum for scholars to engage with the most pressing debates that have emerged since the linguistic turn of the 20th century. The work serves as a primary resource for tracking the evolution of semantic and pragmatic theory in contemporary academic discourse.

Experts and academics regard this series as a foundational repository for serious research in the philosophy of language. Readers frequently note the high level of technical density, making it a primary resource for graduate students and professional philosophers.
