This chapter outlines the history of the notion of intentionality. Starting from its origins in the works of Brentano and Husserl, it will be considered within the framework of the linguistic turn, up to its re-elaboration through the lenses of the cognitive revolution. Originally considered the ‘mark’ of the mental, the concept of intentionality plays a central role in cognitive ethology. In a key article of 1983, Daniel Dennett links it to the question of the meaning of animal signals. Thereafter, as for the possibility of attributing to non-human species communicative capacities in the strict sense, referential and mindreading capacities become particularly relevant. In relation to this issue, some empirical studies on vervet monkeys and chimpanzees will be taken into account.

Abstract
This chapter outlines the history of the notion of intentionality. Starting from its origins in the works of Brentano and Husserl, it will be considered within the framework of the linguistic turn, up to its re-elaboration through the lenses of the cognitive revolution. Originally considered the ‘mark’ of the mental, the concept of intentionality plays a central role in cognitive ethology. In a key article of 1983, Daniel Dennett links it to the question of the meaning of animal signals. Thereafter, as for the possibility of attributing to non-human species communicative capacities in the strict sense, referential and mindreading capacities become particularly relevant. In relation to this issue, some empirical studies on vervet monkeys and chimpanzees will be taken into account.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
