The six papers collected in this volume address a broad range of problems related to the theme of context and content. Among the topics discussed by the authors are the relation between mental and linguistic content, the role of context in the determination of the semantic values of demonstrative expressions, the foundational question about the nature of propositions and their role as objects of propositional attitudes, the temporal versus eternal nature of desire contents and challenges posed by attitudes de se to the traditional view of contents. Some of these papers were presented at the 3^rd Context, Cognition and Communication, which took place in Warsaw in September 2022, and one paper was discussed in the workshop Demonstratives and Indexicals III dedicated to Una Stojnić’s book Context and Coherence (2021). The workshop was organized in Warsaw in January 2023 as part of the project “Semantic and Epistemological Aspects of Ostension: From Demonstrating Procedures to the Exploitation of the Context of Utterance”.
