传统的语义理论如指称论、观念论、使用论等,分别从指称、观念、使用等角度对意义问题进行了深入的探讨,它们各自含有或多或少合理的因素,但也带有或大或小的片面性。与以上探究进路不同,美国当代著名哲学家布兰顿以推理为切入点彰显了对意义问题的不同理解,一定程度上实现了意义问题研究的范式转换。值得深思的是,由于过分强调概念推论实践的中心地位,在某种程度上,也致使他无法真正地将逻辑的形式主义纳入其理论考量。 Traditional semantic theories, such as allegation theory, concept theory and usage theory, explored the meaning problems from the perspectives of reference, concept and use, respectively, each containing more or less reasonable factors, but also with or without Or small one-sidedness. Differing from the above approaches, Brandon, the famous philosopher in the contemporary United States, manifested different understandings of meaning problems from the point of reasoning, and to a certain extent, realized the paradigm shift of the study of meaning problems. It is worth pondering that due to overemphasis on the centrality of conceptual inference practice, to a certain extent, it also made him unable to really include logical formalism in his theoretical considerations.
