Abstract:
Linguistic relativism originally comes from anthropology and linguistics. However, most of the interpretations of linguistic relativism have come a long way considering the beginning of the 20th century – when it was established. One of the reasons for that lies in its interdisciplinary potential. In various arts, we find many applications of the philosophy of linguistic relativism. In this paper, we write about the application of the Sapir–Whorf hypothesis in the American movie Arrival (2016) and the novel from Bosnian writer EnesKarić named Boje višnje (2016).

Abstract:
The present article explores the interrelationships between language and thought in the literature of the Vedic Canon. Whether language shapes thoughts or vice versa has remained a topic pregnant with perpetual discussions, interpretations, and explanations since the beginning of human civilization. Throughout the multiple crossroads of the development in the intellectual tradition, the dimensions of language and thought attracted many scholars and linguists. However, linguists like Edward Sapir and Benjamin L. Whorf in the twentieth century have systematically interpreted and analyzed the language-thought dimensions. Whorf postulated that language shapes thoughts while Sapir projected that language is in the grip of thought. The literature of the Vedic Canon has also logically and systematically projected the multiple dimensional, but agglutinative relationships between language and thought. The hymns of the Rig Veda, myths from Brahmanas, and the lore from Upanishads unravel, interpret, and enrich the language-thought interconnection in such a way that the Vedic literature remains as the classical version of Sapir-Whorf hypothesis written in Sanskrit. In this regard, the Vedic literature and Sapir-Whorf hypothesis play the same tune of music in different lyres. The present paper attempts to reveal this point of unity in diversity between the two seemingly diverse schools of thoughts—classical Vedic literature and modern linguistic theory of Sapir-Whorf hypothesis. Being the qualitative research, this paper explores, interprets, and correlates the theoretical concepts, ideas, and phenomena from the Vedic literature and Sapir-Whorf hypothesis.

Abstract:
Summary A scholarly consensus traces the roots of the ‘Sapir-Whorf hypothesis’ to German language theory of the late 18th to early 19th century, which connects the ‘inner form’ of a language with the potential for cultural achievement of the nation that speaks it. This paper attempts to complexify that genealogy by exploring more immediate sources of the idea that one’s native language determines individual and cultural patterns of thought. In the version of this idea held by Herder and Humboldt, called here the ‘magic key’ view, language is seen as embodying the national mind and unfolding in line with the Romantic (Hegelian) theory of history. But there is another version, here dubbed ‘metaphysical garbage’, which envisions language developing within an evolutionary view of history and introducing obstacles to logical thought. This view was a commonplace of Cambridge analytical philosophy (Whitehead & Russell) and Viennese logical positivism (Carnap). A key Cambridge-Vienna link was C. K. Ogden, whose series included books by the leaders of both groups, and whose own book The Meaning of Meaning (with I. A. Richards, 1923) – the subtitle of which begins The influence of language on thought – synthesizes many of their positions. Sapir’s positive review of this book marks a turning point from his view of language as a cultural product (as in Language, 1921) to a sort of template around which the rest of culture is structured, as in his “The Status of Linguistics as a Science” (1929). This paper, like others of Sapir’s writings from 1923 on, takes up the rhetoric of metaphysical garbage almost exclusively. Whorf, drawn by Sapir to structuralism from originally mystical interests in language, likewise takes up the ‘garbage’ line, interweaving it with ‘magic key’ only in the two years between Sapir’s death and his own. Other influences on Whorf s views are examined, including Korzybski’s General Semantics, to which he has intriguing connections.

Abstract:
The relationship between language and thought has long been a topic of great interest in the field of linguistics, especially in psycholinguistics. Herder, Humboldt, Trendelenbury, Sapir, Whorf, Gui Shichun, Lian Shuneng, and Bao Huinan are some of the well-known scholars who have conducted research on the relationship between language and thought. With regard to the relationship between language and thought, there are three main viewpoints. The first group of scholars, represented by Sapir and Whorf, supports linguistic determinism. Some scholars believe that language and thought are mutually independent. However, others believe that language and thought are inseparable. Beginning from Sapir-Whorf hypothesis and their theory of linguistic determinism and linguistic relativity, this article agrees with the influence of language over thought but refutes the extreme viewpoint of linguistic determinism from several points, proving the independence and mutual influence of language and thought. This article finally concludes that the preferred relationship between language and thought should be that they are independent but interactive.

Abstract:
The Sapir-Whorf hypothesis, which was first proposed by linguists Edward Sapir and Benjamin Lee Whorf in the early 20th century, is currently the most widely accepted theory of neurolinguistics. It makes the argument that language influences cognition and perception, i.e., that people's basic worldviews vary depending on the language they use. Their hypothesis, sometimes referred to as "linguistic relativity," contends that a language's lexicon and structure affect perception. This claim has been disputed on a number of different grounds.Specifically, the hypothesis is composed of two different parts called Linguistic Diversity and Linguistic Influence on Thought, which argue that languages have fundamental differences from each other and that the differences between individual languages create cognitive differences within people. With regards to the latter cognitive section of the theory, there are two key tiers that it is divided into. The first tier proposes a universal "rock bottom" of human consciousness, where everyone must share a basic level of perception. The second tier delves into the semantic details of various languages, asserting that these linguistic nuances contribute to different interpretations layered atop the universal foundation. Moreover, the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis has been even further bisected into two distinct versions depending on how strongly they convey the idea of linguistic relativity, with a strong version arguing that native language completely alters our perspective and a weak version that only suggests a weak connection between the two.

Resumo: A partir da perspectiva da História das Idéias Lingüísticas, investigam-se as filiações ao filósofo Friedrich W. Nietzsche (1844-1900) nas Ciências da Linguagem. Perguntando-se sobre os pontos de contato entre as diversas teorias lingüísticas e o pensamento do filósofo, propõe-se a filiação da chamada hipótese Sapir-Whorf à filosofia de Nietzsche. Desse modo, procura-se compreender a constituição das teorias e dos métodos lingüísticos a partir do campo heterogêneo que caracteriza as Ciências da Linguagem. Apresenta-se com esse fim um panorama do problema da linguagem em Nietzsche e, em seguida, defendem-se os graus de consonância e dissonância entre os autores. Desse modo, argumenta-se que Nietzsche é uma condição de possibilidade para o pensamento de E. Sapir e B. Whorf. No jogo entre memória e esquecimento, é sempre lembrado o nome de W. von Humboldt enquanto "precursor" da hipótese. Percebe-se, entretanto, que no gesto epistemológico de "olhar para trás" em busca de bases, muitas vezes os autores, quando "voltam" desse gesto, o fazem já afetados por toda uma gama de outras idéias que modificaram a primeira, e é nesse sentido que se apresenta a filiação da hipótese a Nietzsche
Abstract: As from the point of view of History of Linguistic Ideas, the research investigates the filiations to the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1990) on the Language Sciences. By questioning the contact points between the various linguistic theories and the philosopher's thoughts, the filiation of the so-called Sapir-Whorf hypothesis to Nietzsche's philosophy is proposed. Thus, It seeks the understanding on the linguistic theories and methods constitution, as from the heterogeneous field that characterizes the Language Sciences. In order to do so, it presents an overview on the matter of language at Nietzsche and, thereafter, the levels of consonance and dissonance among the authors are endorsed. Hence, it is defended that Nietzsche represents a condition of possibility for E. Sapir and B. Whorf's reasoning. As in the play-off between memory and forgetfulness, the name of W. von Humboldt is always recalled as the "forerunner" of the hypothesis. It can be perceived, however, that on the epistemological act of "looking back" in search for ground, the authors often "return" from this gesture rather affected by a whole other range of ideas that have, thus, modified the previous ones, and it is in that sense that the hypothesis filiation to Nietzsche presents itself

Abstract:
Esta dissertação teve por objeto delinear alguns fatores relativos ao processo de emergência da leitura dos trabalhos do linguista e antropólogo norte-americano Edward Sapir (1884-1939) como um dos proponentes de um conjunto de afirmações acerca da natureza das línguas naturais, agrupadas sob o rótulo relativismo linguístico, cujo debate recebeu bastante atenção dos antropólogos linguistas estadunidenses, na primeira metade do século XX. Costuma-se afirmar que o relativismo linguístico seja uma hipótese, que alega que a língua pode moldar a percepção da realidade, o pensamento ou a cultura. Visto o nome de Sapir estar associado ao de Whorf, como o rótulo hipótese Sapir-Whorf indica, e que este rótulo tem sido bastante utilizado atualmente para se referir ao relativismo linguístico, efetuou-se o rastreamento de alguns conceitos fundamentais nesta discussão, dentro do quadro teórico proposto por Sapir, tal como suas concepções acerca da língua, da cultura e do pensamento, com vistas a avaliar a procedência de sua recepção como um relativista. Havido sido este trabalho conduzido sob a metodologia da Historiografia Linguística, buscamos também resgatar os fatores contextuais nos quais tais proposições teóricas emanaram. Por fim, propomos a discussão da configuração do termo relativismo no horizonte teórico do autor, visando fornecer uma perspectiva de leitura diferente da proposta, atualmente, por inúmeros manuais de História da Linguística.
This dissertation had as its objective to outline some factors related to the emergence process of reading the American anthropologist and linguist Edward Sapirs (1884- 1939) papers as one of the proponents of a set of assertions about the nature of natural languages, grouped under the label linguistic relativity, whose debate received much attention from American linguistic anthropologists, during the first half of the twentieth century. It is often said that the linguistic relativity is a hypothesis, which argues that language can shape the perception of reality, thought or culture. Since Sapirs name has been associated with Whorfs, as the label Sapir-Whorf hypothesis indicates, a term widely used today to refer to linguistic relativity, we carried out tracking of some fundamental concepts in this discussion, within the theoretical framework proposed by Sapir, as his conceptions of language, culture and thought, in order to assess the merits of its reception as a relativist. As this research was conducted under the methodology of Linguistic Historiography, we have also sought to rescue the contextual factors in which such theoretical propositions have emanated. Finally, we propose to discuss the setting of the term relativism in the author\'s theoretical horizon, aiming to provide a reading perspective fairly different from the ones proposed currently by numerous handbooks on the History of Linguistics.

Abstract:

This work concerns the linguistic relativity hypothesis, also known as the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis, which, in its most general form claims that ‘lan-guage’ influences ‘thought’. Past studies into linguistic relativity have treated various aspects of both thought and language, but a growing body of literature has recently emerged, in this thesis referred to as neo-Whorfian, that empirically investigates thought and language from a cross-linguistic perspective and claims that the grammar or lexicon of a particular language influences the speakers’ non-linguistic thought.

The present thesis examines the assumptions about language that underlie this claim and criticizes the neo-Whorfian arguments from the point of view that they are based on misleading notions of language. The critique focuses on the operationalization of thought, language, and culture as separate vari-ables in the neo-Whorfian empirical investigations. The neo-Whorfian stud-ies explore language primarily as ‘particular languages’ and investigate its role as a variable standing in a causal relation to the ‘thought’ variable. Tho-ught is separately examined in non-linguistic tests and found to ‘correlate’ with language.

As a contrast to the neo-Whorfian view of language, a few examples of other approaches to language, referred to in the thesis as sociocultural appro-aches, are reviewed. This perspective on language places emphasis on prac-tice and communication rather than on particular languages, which are vie-wed as secondary representations. It is argued that from a sociocultural per-spective, language as an integrated practice cannot be separated from tho-ught and culture. The empirical findings in the neo-Whorfian studies need not be rejected, but they should be interpreted differently. The findings of linguistic and cognitive diversity reflect different communicational practices in which language cannot be separated from non-language.

Abstract:
Nous avons examiné comment des lésions cérébrales chez l'homme affectent les interdépendances entre trois modules de traitement cortical de la couleur, notamment : la perception, la dénomination et la connaissance de la couleur de l'objet. Nous avons étudié la catégorisation des couleurs - un exemple de l'interaction entre la perception et le langage. Les preuves provenant du développement cognitif, de la psychologie comparée et des neurosciences cognitives suggèrent que la catégorisation des couleurs ne provient ni de la perception ni du langage, comme le présume le débat Nature-Nurture. Les catégories de couleurs peuvent plutôt refléter des objets pertinents dans l'environnement. Pour évaluer la causalité entre la catégorisation et la dénomination, nous avons étudié un patient victime d'un AVC, le RDS. Malgré de difficultés pour nommer les couleurs chromatiques, résultant d’une lésion occipito-temporale gauche, la catégorisation des couleurs était relativement épargnée chez RDS. Des expériences d'IRM multimodale ont révélé que la connectivité perception-langage est essentielle pour un nommage efficace des couleurs, mais pas pour une catégorisation. L’étude de la connaissance de la couleur des objets dans le contexte de la dégradation des noms de couleurs de RDS a montré que celui-ci ne pouvait pas lier la perception des couleurs au langage ni à la connaissance sémantique. Il ne pouvait pas associer une couleur visuelle à un nom de couleur ou à la forme de son objet typique. Globalement, nous avons démontré trois ségrégations fonctionnelles dans le traitement cortical des couleurs, entre : (1) la catégorisation et la dénomination des couleurs, (2) la dénomination des couleurs chromatiques et achromatiques et (3) la connaissance des objets colorés et celle des couleurs abstraites. Les mécanismes corticaux du traitement des couleurs pourraient avoir pour objectif de lier des informations sensorielles et sémantiques afin de guider le comportement lié aux objets, en réalisant (1) une perception des couleurs stable, (2) des catégories de couleurs pertinentes et (3) des représentations mentales communes des formes et des couleurs. L'évolution culturelle peut avoir recyclé les circuits neuronaux nécessaires à ces processus pour isoler la couleur de l'objet et l'étiqueter avec des noms de couleur
We examined the effects of brain lesions in humans on the interdependences between three modules of cortical colour processing, namely colour perception, naming and object-colour knowledge. We first focused on colour categorisation - a case-in-point of the interplay between perception and language. Reviewed evidence from cognitive development, comparative psychology and cognitive neuroscience hints that colour categorisation originates from neither perception nor language, as assumed by the Nature-Nurture debate. Instead, colour categories may reflect relevant objects in the environment. To assess the causal link between categorization and naming, we investigated a stroke patient, RDS. Despite severe difficulties in naming chromatic colours, due to a left occipito-temporal lesion, RDS’s colour categorisation was relatively spared. Multimodal MRI experiments revealed that the language-perception connectivity is essential for efficient colour naming but not for categorisation. Investigation of object-colour knowledge in the context of RDS’s colour-naming impairment showed that RDS could not link colour perception to neither language nor semantic knowledge. He could not associate a visual colour to a colour name or to the shape of its typical object. Overall, we demonstrated three functional segregations in colour processing: between (1) colour categorisation and colour naming, (2) naming of chromatic and achromatic colours and (3) knowing about coloured objects and knowing about abstract colours. The main purpose of high-level cortical colour mechanisms could be providing sensory and semantic information to guide object-related behaviour, by achieving (1) stable colour perception, (2) relevant colour categories, and (3) joint mental representations of shapes and colours. These neural computations may have been recycled in cultural evolution to isolate colours from objects and label them with names

Full text
Abstract:
The purpose of this thesis is to provide a global overview on the studies that have been carried out on the relationship between language, culture and thought. Specifically, the first part will focus on the belief at the core of this subject, Linguistic Relativity, while the second part will analyse the field of second language acquisition, which appears to often intertwine with the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis. After a short introduction, a brief overview of previous research is provided. In particular, the claims of Aristotle, von Humboldt and Boas are illustrated more in detail. Then, the focus is shifted towards the figures and claims of Edward Sapir and Benjamin Lee Whorf. The hypothesis of Linguistic Relativity is further explained, pointing to the two principles which stem from it (the weak and the strong version, i.e., linguistic determinism). The belief that each language deeply affects its speaker’s cognition (resulting in differences in patterns of thought and cognitive structures) is consequently illustrated. A review of some of the objections that have been moved against this hypothesis follow. After that, a general overview on subsequent studies is provided, drawing the attention towards some of the main domains around which research has revolved: colour perception and grammatical gender and number. Lastly, the field of second language acquisition is outlined. The main focus concerns the implications of Linguistic Relativity for this field and a summary of the research that has been carried out on this topic, again offering a deeper insight on some of the most well-researched areas: colour terms and perception, grammatical gender and number and the interpretation of motion events.

Abstract:
This thesis is concerned with the correlation between cultural values and the semantic content of words over time; toward this purpose, the research focuses on Judeo-Christian religious terminology in the English language. The Sapir-Whorf hypothesis is of central interest to this study, and the implications of the hypothesis, including a bidirectional interpretation allowing for both the influence of language on worldview and culture on language, is of great relevance to the research findings and conclusions. The paper focuses on the etymology and sources of religious terminology in the English language, the prominent category of terms with both religious and secular applications attained through semantic shift, and the role of religious words as English taboo. The research findings imply that a bidirectional understanding of the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis is the correct one. This is achieved both through analysis of historical events and linguistic development which emphasize the speaker's role in language development and through the study of societal values that are reinforced through linguistic practices, namely taboo.

Abstract:
This work is a contribution to the debate between realism and relativism in metaphysics. Realism is the thesis that there is a unique real world which exists independently of our perceiving it and thinking about it. Furthermore, realism has it that the nature of the unique real world is as it is independently of how we perceive it to be, and of how our theories describe it. According to realism, to give a correct account of some constituent of the world, or of the world itself, is to present a God's Eye View of that constituent, or the world. There can only be one complete and correct account of the real world. The realist standpoint may also be referred to as the standpoint of objectivity, or as the externalist perspective.
