| Abstract | The bulk of this thesis is devoted to proposing a crosscut reading of two great works of Thomas Reid (1710-1796), Essays on the Intellectual Powers of Man and An Inquiry into the Human Mind on the Principles of Common Sense, aiming at positing Reid’s notion of language that underlies his theory of operations of the mind. For this, the work is divided into four main points: firstly, Reid’s understanding of language is posted, as Reid conceives and organizes it; secondly, the reidian theory of operations of mind is examined as well as its division into social and solitary operation; thirdly, the subject of the testimony is explained so as to, lastly, end it by attempting to answer the question that underlies this research, namely, in what ways Reid’s concept of language depicts the relations among world, mind, and language from Reid’s own conceptions. |
