Language, Mind and Reality: A Reflection on Philosophical Thoughts of R. C. Pradhan

The essays in this book delve into the central theme of R. C. Pradhan’s philosophy in particular and the issues in the Analytic Philosophy in general. In Analytic tradition, Professor Pradhan’s research has been extensively in the area of Wittgenstein’s Philosophy, Philosophy of Language, and Philosophy of Mind. While philosophizing the notion of language and mind, Pradhan explores the complexities of the web of life. For him, language binds neatly several aspects of life such as cultural, moral, religious, scientific, etc., whereas the mind represents the inner world of human experience that involves multiple dimensions of consciousness―the bodily, the vital, the mental and the spiritual consciousness. Considering the broad spectrum of his works, the contributors have considerably reflected mainly on the issues concerning the nature of Metaphysics, Mind, Meaning, Truth and Values. Language, Mind and Reality, in this regard, is a study on the contemporary trends in Analytic Philosophy.
