Description

Explore a significant work in Western philosophy with The Varieties of Reference from the Clarendon Paperbacks series. This volume represents the collected research of Gareth Evans, a philosopher recognized as one of the most brilliant minds of his generation. Although Evans passed away in 1980 at age thirty-four before he could complete his final manuscript on the subject of reference, his extensive work remains a vital contribution to the field. This edition was carefully edited for publication by John McDowell, who provides a Preface to guide readers through the text. For students, academics, and readers interested in the history and schools of thought within Western philosophy, this book offers a unique window into the unfinished but profound ideas of a major thinker. Published by Oxford University Press, this paperback provides an accessible way to engage with deep philosophical inquiries regarding how language and thought relate to the world.
