Resumo

The main goal of this exploratory article is to analyze how Frege’s theory fits into Robert Brandom’s inferentialism framework, known as expressivism, and the pragmatic consequences that arise from this shift. We aim to address a pressing challenge in philosophy of mind and cognitive science: reconciling the pragmatic aspects of successful assertion and inferential coherence with a theoretical representation of mental contents. The article argues that the Fregean tradition has not been successful in preserving Frege’s anti-psychological approach and suggests the need for a theory of mental content that aligns with Frege’s notion of inference. The last objective of the article, addressed in the last moment, is to explore the challenges of a new phenomenological consensus.
