  • More about Concepts in Thought, Action, and Emotion: New Essays


The idea of a concept has gained importance in various philosophical areas, and this collection of essays explores the relationship between concepts and language, experience, knowledge, and emotion. It addresses questions such as what concepts are, what nonconceptual content exists, and whether perceptual experience has conceptual content. The essays also examine the dependence of conceptual thought on language, the formation of new concepts, the propositional content of practical knowledge, and the representational content of emotions.

In recent years, the notion of a concept has gained increasing prominence across various branches of philosophy. This comprehensive collection of original essays explores philosophical perspectives on the intricate relationship between concepts, language, experience, knowledge, and emotions. The essays encompass a diverse range of interconnected philosophical domains, including epistemology, philosophy of language, philosophy of mind, philosophy of action, and the philosophy of emotions. Among the central inquiries addressed by the contributors are: What exactly are concepts? What constitutes nonconceptual content? Does perceptual experience possess conceptual elements? Is conceptual thought inherently reliant on language? How do we create new concepts? Does practical knowledge possess propositional content? Can practical understanding be conceptual without being propositional? Do emotions have a representational nature, and if so, is the representational content conceptual?

Concepts in Thought, Action, and Emotion: An Exploration advances ongoing discussions about concepts and holds appeal to scholars engaged in diverse philosophical disciplines.
