According to one influential view of language, one that originated with Hobbes, Locke, and Condillac, language serves to encode information and to communicate it. This theory has been rendered more sophisticated over the last two centuries, but it still gives a central place to the encoding of information. The thesis of Taylor's new book is that this view neglects crucial features of our language capacity. Sometimes language serves not just to encode information, but also shapes what it purports to describe. This language is more than merely 'descriptive;' it plays a 'constitutive' role."...Provided by publisher | ||

IN SEMINAL WORKS RANGING FROM
Sources oƒ the SeZ/ to A Secrr^Zcxr· Age,
Charles Taylor՝ has shown how we create
possible ways of being, both as individuals
arret as a society. In his new bo ole setting
forth decades of thought, he demonstrates
that language is at the center of this gener-
ative process.
For centuries, philosophers have been
divided on the nature of language. Those in
the rational empiricist tradition-Hobbes,
Locke, Condillac, and their heirs-assert
that language is a tool that human beings
developed to encode and communicate
information- In The Tcxnguotge AnimaZ,
Taylor explains that this view neglects the
very thought it purports to express. Lan-
guage does not merely describe; it consti-
sess.^XVe first learn language from others,
and, inducted into the shared practice of
speech, our individual selves emerge out
Taylor expands the thinking of the Ger-
man Romantics LTamann, Herder, and
Humboldt into a theory of linguistic ho-
lism. Language is intellectual, but it is also
enacted in artistic portrayals, gestures,
tones of voice, metaphors, and the shifts
of emphasis and attitude that accompany
speech. FLuman language recognizes no
boundary between mind and body. In illu-
minating the full capacity of the language
animal,” Taylor sheds light on the very
role language plays in shaping the
human
. The human linguistic
of what it is to be a human being.
