The main problems of modern philosophy concern sources, limits and character of knowledge. Objectivity and validity of knowledge are justified by critique and analysis of structure and function of the mind. Investigations focus primarily on the epistemological issues. Philosophers see the roots of meaning of language in mind or experience. Pure intuition of Descartes, experience of British Empiricists, universal language of Leibniz, Kant’s notions of the pure reason and Mill’s criteria of the correct reasoning are not connected to language. In their opinion language is not a suitable means of representing the world. A very fast development of empirical linguistic studies - works of Herder, Hamann and Humboldt etc. evoke much interest in language. The situation begins to change: critique of language is gradually taking place of critique of reason. Instead of ideas in the mind philosophers discuss linguistic expressions and question of how they refer to the world.
