语言、思想与世界的关系——塞拉斯、布兰顿与密立根

The Relationship Between Language,Thought And The World——Sellars,Brandom and Millikan

布兰顿和密立根都是塞拉斯主义者,但哲学理论彼此差异很大,被称为右翼塞拉斯主义者的密立根追寻着塞拉斯在《逻辑哲学论》中发展出的的表征主义;而被称为左翼塞拉斯主义者的布兰顿追寻着塞拉斯在《哲学研究》中发展出的推理作用语义学,然而塞拉斯却尽力试图弥合维特根斯坦前后时期两部著作的裂缝。

Brandom and Millikan are both Sellarians,but their philosophical theories are quite different from each other.Millikan,known as the right-wing Sellarians,pursues the representationalism developed by Sellars in the theory of Wittgenstein's Trachtatus Logico Philosophicus,while Brandom,known as the left-wing Sellarians,pursues the Inferential semantics developed by Sellars in Philosophical Investigations.However,Sellars tried to close the gap between Wittgenstein's two early and later works.
