La teoria dell’indeterminatezza semantica degli slur / G. Torrengo. - In: RIVISTA ITALIANA DI FILOSOFIA DEL LINGUAGGIO. - ISSN 2036-6728. - 13:1(2019), pp. 133-143. [10.4396/092019010]
Abstract:
A puzzling element of the derogatory aspect of slurs is its erratic behavior in embeddings, such as negation or belief reports. The derogatory aspect seems sometimes to scope out from the embedding to the context of utterance, while at other times it seems to interact with the linguistic constructions in which the slur is implanted. I argue that slurs force us to maintain a kind of semantic indeterminacy which, to my knowledge, has passed largely unnoticed in philosophy of language.
