This book presents the current state of experimental philosophy of language, drawing attention to corpus methods. The volume highlights new trends in experimental philosophy of language, thus exploring the future’s discipline. It includes cross-linguistics studies that reveal the differences and similarities in how speakers of different languages use specific terms, and scrutinizes methodological advances used in experimental philosophy of language. The book also includes politically engaged experimental philosophy of language studies focusing on slurs, pejoratives, and hate speech. The topic’s interdisciplinary nature makes the volume of interest to a broad range of scholars across disciplines including philosophy, linguistics, philology, psychology, and computational linguistics.

This Handbook presents a comprehensive overview of intuitions from a variety of traditions. It brings together works by the best specialists working on intuitions in five different traditions: the South Asian tradition, the Chinese tradition, the Japanese tradition, the Arabo-Islamic tradition, and the Western tradition with, in this last case, a focus on philosophy of language and on philosophy of mathematics. It highlights the similarities and differences between the traditions bringing the various perspectives into one volume.In the Western traditions, a first approximation to the meaning of the term may be to say that we intuit that p, as opposed to, for example, deducing that p, when we believe that p is true but without the mediation of any other belief, that serves as a basis for believing that p. In the naturalistic perspective, intuition is nothing other than the starting point of a rudimentary theory, expressed by classifications or by instances of singular propositions of the form “This is red”, the bona fide evidence of which are uncontroversial because they are commanded by a wide agreement – a perspective shared by South Asian traditions. Topics in this volume include the importance of intuitions in Madhva’s religious epistemology, intuition in early Confucian philosophy, Nishida and active intuition, intuition in Islamic mysticisms, and evidential and rhetorical moves in the study of language. This volume is of interest to researchers and students of intuition.

A new wave of thinkers from across different disciplines within the analytical tradition in philosophy has recently focused on critical, societal challenges, such as the silencing and questioning of the credibility of oppressed groups, the political polarization that threatens the good functioning of democratic societies across the globe, or the moral and political significance of gender, race, or sexual orientation.Appealing to both well-established and younger international scholars, this volume delves into some of the most relevant problems and discussions within the area, bringing together for the first time different essays within what we deem to be a “political turn in analytic philosophy.”This political turn consists of putting different conceptual and theoretical tools from epistemology, philosophy of language, philosophy of mind, and metaphysics at the service of social and political change. The aim is to ensure a better understanding of some of the key features of our social environments in an attempt to achieve a more just and equal society.
