For the past 40 years Talbot Taylor has argued for the distinctively reflexive character of human language and discursive practices. The seven papers included here explore the implications of this argument for various fields of language research, including linguistic theory, linguistic anthropology, language acquisition, language evolution, folk psychology, cognitive science, linguistic historiography, and the philosophy of language.
