Should one be a left or a right Sellarsian? (And is there really such a choice?)
Original language description
The followers of Wilfrid Sellars are often divided into 'right' and 'left' Sellarsians, according to whether they believe, in Mark Lance s words, that 'linguistic roles constitutive of meaning and captured by dot quoted words are normative all the way down.' The present article anatomizes this division and argues that it is not easy to give it a nontrivial sense. In particular, the article argues that it is not really possible to construe it as a controversy related to ontology, and goes on to argue that it is also not easy to construe it as one concerning the translatability of the normative idiom into the non-normative one. The conclusion is that the only coherent interpretation of this disagreement is as a disagreement about the possibility and desirability of assuming a standpoint 'inside' our linguistic practices.
