Life and Thought
Donald Herbert Davidson (1917–2003) was an American philosopher and one of the most influential figures in analytic philosophy in the second half of the twentieth century. With theories such as radical interpretation, anomalous monism, and triangulation, he made fundamental contributions to the philosophy of language, philosophy of mind, and action theory. His works remain a central reference point in discussions concerning meaning, content, and the relationship between mind and world.
