"Literary Disagreement"
Seminar on Language and Communication
Perry (2012) and Korta and Perry (2011) have argued for the importance of acknowledging different truth-conditional contents of utterances to deal with classical problems in the philosophy of language. My present work is an attempt to acknowledge this multiplicity of contents in order to deal with problems related to evaluative statements, i.e., statements that are used to make evaluations, or that carry an evaluation with their use. I focus on statements used to assess literary works and, after developing my account of them, I present and discuss some consequences of my view for disagreements about literature. In consequence, my presentation will have two parts. In the first part, I present an analysis of the multiple truth-conditional contents of evaluative statements.

The research group on Language, Action, and Thought ---at the Institute of Logic, Cognition, Language and Information (ILCLI)--- mostly focuses on the Philosophy of Language and Mind as well as on the Philosophy of Action. Most of its members are philosophers but it also includes linguists, psychologists and logicians.
An important part of our research has evolved around Critical Pragmatics, a theory created and developed by some of us, with applications to the study of linguistic communication, and important assumptions and implications about thought and action.
During the last decade, we have received several grants from the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU), the Basque Government and the Government of Spain.
Address: ILCLI. UPV/EHU. Carlos Santamaria Zentroa.
