This is built on a teleosemantic account of perceptual content borrowed from Neander, which is here generalized to give an account of the content of action-guiding states. The key ingredient of such stories is an account of biological function, and this chapter lays out and responds to a central challenge to such approaches. After presenting Neander’s account, the chapter will show how to generalize this to the case of action-guiding states. The final section of this chapter takes a final look at these, the ultimate basis for representation on my three-layer story.","PeriodicalId":340183,"journal":{"name":"The Metaphysics of Representation","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123136440","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The correct interpretation is the best theory of the linguistic conventions, and the best theory optimizes simplicity (elegance) and fit with the data. It is argued that elegance should be understood relative to the language-users’ pooled conceptual repertoire, and the combined theory of representation in language and thought is wielded to resolve indeterminacy puzzles. The appeal to simplicity/elegance in this context is compared to appeals to simplicity/elegance in the context of the metaphysics of mental content, where a rather different approach was examined. The compatibility of the two approaches is assessed.","PeriodicalId":340183,"journal":{"name":"The Metaphysics of Representation","volume":"472 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124393847","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
