Emma Borg on Language and Context

<p>How much of the meaning of what we say depends on its context of utterance? Is there a role for literal meaning. <a href="http://www.reading.ac.uk/AcaDepts/ld/Philos/borg/borg.htm">Emma Borg</a> discusses these questions with <a href="http://www.nigelwarburton.com">Nigel Warburton</a> in this episode of the <a href="http://www.philosophybites.com">Philosophy Bites</a> podcast. </p>

David Edmonds (Uehiro Centre, Oxford University) and Nigel Warburton (freelance philosopher/writer) interview top philosophers on a wide range of topics. Two books based on the series have been published by Oxford University Press. We are currently self-funding - donations very welcome via our website http://www.philosophybites.com
