答案

Language and mind have been two of the premier research areas of 20th century philosophy.Each has been studied independently of the other,with the philosophy of language dominating the first half of the century and the philosophy of mind surging in the second half.The philosophy of language does not study particular human languages.Rather,it focuses on more abstract questions of language itself,including how sentences mean what they do,how names refer to individuals or natural kinds,how we can talk about non-existent things,and whether (and how) two sentences can mean the same thing.The philosophy of mind in 20th century analytic philosophy includes the traditional challenges of the mind/body problem,but also aims at assessing the prospects of particular sciences of the mind such as scientific psychology and neuroscience.
