About the Book
Based on the infusion thesis of language and cognition, the book taken on an analysis of cognition as it flashes when presented by language. Taking philosophy as cognitive activity par excellence, it investigates into the intelligible beings as the object –proper of philosophy and provides with a holistic philosophy based on authonomy of language. It serves as hors ‘d oeuvre of a new trend of analyzing and philosophizing language. Scholarly works written on the history of Indian philosophy chiefly undertake the study of metaphysics, epistemology and axiology of the different systems and ignore their reflections on language, being and verbal-cognition. The present work observes that the basic logic of the heterodox and orthodox systems can not be analyzed and estimated properly if their philosophies about language, being and cognition are not properly analyzed and discussed. The constructionists’/wordists’ and the holists’ controversy on the issues of language, being and cognition is well pointed out, appropriately analyzed and discussed conclusively in a contemporary perspective to root the autonomy of language to a philosophical reflection workable future of philosophy.
