Abstract

Putnam's theory of meaning is the semantic core of the subject outside of Marxism. One characteristic of the external doctrine is rejected individualism. His argument strategy is: trying to present a negative picture, rather than defend a generalized theory of meaning. Putnam's theory of meaning we have to make a bold beyond the inherent limitations of analytical philosophy and conceptual framework is important. Theory of meaning is a key goal is to show the meaning of the concept of evolution is to continue to reduce the bearing contact with the picture of analytic philosophy philosophy of the burden of the process. Further, the Putnam aimed at changing some of the philosophers held real grasp on how to express significance for the theory of knowledge and language point of view. The key argument of Putnam's meaning theory is the semantic externalism with rejecting individualism. Putnam tries to propose a negative picture lather than to defend of a general theory. The significance of Putnam's theory is helpful to beyond of the limits of origin and concept of analytical philosophy . The key goal of Putnam's meaning theory is to express that the evolution process of meaning concept gradually reduces the philosophical burden of the analytical philosophy, that is to say, the goal of Putnam is to change some philosophers' viewpoints about how to grasp truly the theory and language of meaning knowledge
