Annotation
This volume focuses on the complex issue of individuation and the definition of identity, conceiving human cognition as proper of organisms that, in the course of their interactions, engender symbolic forms, determining the particular physical, social and cultural contexts in which they develop. The definition of world objects and its symbolic translation vary from language to language and the nature of this symbolic translation influences reference individuation and the construction of “one-off referring” expressions.
