The paper begins with an account of the emergence of analytic philosophy of language in the twentieth century in the context of the development of logic and the linguistic turn. Subsequently, it describes two examples of analytic philosophy of language in its heyday when the discipline was conceived as first philosophy. Finally, it provides, by way of conclusion, a succinct outline of the current state of philosophy of language, marked by modesty and fragmentation. It is claimed that even if one retains optimism about the prospects of philosophy of language in the first century of the new millennium, it would be unreasonable to disagree with the opinion that the present-day philosophy of language is a highly specialized and diversified discipline and no longer so central for philosophical enterprise as it used to be.

语言分析哲学的形而上学变形

本文首先介绍了在逻辑发展和语言学转向的背景下，二十世纪语言分析哲学的兴起。随后，它描述了语言分析哲学鼎盛时期的两个例子，当时该学科被认为是第一哲学。最后，作为结论，它简要地概述了语言哲学的当前状态，以谦虚和支离破碎为标志。有人声称，即使人们对新千年的第一世纪的语言哲学前景保持乐观，也不同意这样一种观点，即当今的语言哲学是一门高度专业化和多样化的学科。不再像以前那样对哲学事业如此重要。
