Resumo: Diana Pérez (2005) criticizes Davidson’s argument for the thesis that there is no thought without language, and offers an alternative defense of that thesis on the basis of empirical studies on developmental psychology. In this comment I argue that more recent studies do not seem to affect Davidson’s argument in the way Pérez suggests, and that her alternative defense of the thesis that there is no thought without language is insufficient. At the end, I offer a sketch of how a weaker and more tenable version of the argument could be articulated.

Neste comentário argumento que estudos mais recentes não parecem afetar o argumento de Davidson da maneira sugerida por Pérez e que sua defesa alternativa da tese de que não há pensamento sem linguagem é insuficiente. Ao final, ofereço um esboço de como uma versão mais fraca e defensável do argumento poderia ser articulada.Federal University of Santa Catarina – UFSC2012-09-23info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/principia/article/view/1808-1711.2012v16n3p48910.5007/1808-1711.2012v16n3p489Principia: an international journal of epistemology; Vol. 16 No. 3 (2012); 489-494Principia: an international journal of epistemology; Vol. 16 Núm. 3 (2012); 489-494Principia: an international journal of epistemology; v. 16 n. 3 (2012); 489-4941808-17111414-4247reponame:Principia (Florianópolis.
