DESTEFANO, Mariela. Language Processing and Informational Semantics. Prax. filos. [online]. 2019, n.48, pp.153-174. ISSN 0120-4688.  https://doi.org/10.25100/pfilosofica.v0i48.7313.

According to Fodor the processing of linguistic information would operate on representations of the language of thought. Could the content of these representations be understood in terms of the informational semantics proposed by Fodor? The author seems to maintain that it is possible, but in this work I would like to show that the content of these representations could not be informational. The reasons are related to the difficulties of adopting a type of externalist semantics (such as the informational) for the case of the representations of the processing systems.
