Extractions: The first part of the volume, devoted to the philosophy of language, consists of four papers. The first of them, Jerry Fodor and Ernie LePore's Meaning, Holism and the Problem of Extensionality concentrates on Davidson's effort to derive the theory of meaning from the theory of truth, the theory of truth being captured by means of T-sentences of the kind of the following: "Snow is white is true iff snow is white Fodor and LePore construe the connective iff in these sentences as expressing material equivalence (i.e. they take the T-sentences to be true once the clauses on both sides of iff share the same truth value), and conclude that the T-sentences are not capable of yielding a real meaning theory. They present what they see as three different ways Davidson has tried to improve on this situation: (1) Exploit that languages are structured, that expressions recur in (infinitely) many sentences; i.e. assume that it is the totality of T-sentences which yields us the meaning of each single item. (2) Require that T-sentences be not simply contingent truths, but some kind of

Davidson's deepest influence is Quine, with whom he shares a commitment to the fundamental importance of standard logic to metaphysics, and a consequent suspicion of 'intensional' entities like meanings, propositions, and properties or attributes.

Extractions: Davidson, Donald 1917-, American philosopher. A follower of W. V. Quine, Davidson, who teaches at the Univ. of California, Berkeley, has emerged as one of the major figures in post-World War II analytic philosophy. He has developed a philosophy of language, a central tenet of which is that knowing the meaning of a sentence is a matter of knowing the conditions under which it is true. Davidson's views on language and mind have led him to reject conceptual relativism, i.e., the idea that human beings can possess radically divergent conceptual schemes such that some cannot, in principle, be translated into others. His works include Essays on Actions and Events (1980) and Inquiries into Truth and Interpretation See Ernest Lepore, ed., Truth and Interpretation: Perspectives on the Philosophy of Donald Davidson (1986); Simon Evnine, Donald Davidson

Extractions: Austin Peay University at Ft. Campbell, Kentucky I. Biography Donald Davidson is a poet whose creative, artistic, descriptive style gives his poems a unique characteristic that catches the reader's attention and interest. Davidson was born in 1893, in Campbellsville, Tennessee. The most profound influence in his early life was his father, who provided the young son instruction in the classical languages and who read a great deal to his children in the evenings. This way Davidson became impressed with literature. Also his father taught him the pleasures of native music. Davidson's mother also influenced him. She was responsible for instilling in Davidson a deep appreciation for classical music. Being a music teacher by profession, his mother taught him to play the piano. Throughout his life, he became interested in understanding music from the composing point of view and later on he composed one original operetta. Another source of influence in Davidson's life at home was his father's vast library filled with many classical authors. Various Tennessean narratives about Indian and pioneer times caught the young boy's interest, as well as plays of Shakespeare or poems by Poe. His father cautioned him against reading so much of the popular sentimental or European literature and did not believe that children should enter school very young. Since the young Davidson was a little wonder when he entered school he was placed right in the fifth grade. Later on, while in school his father was also among his teachers.
