Description	The 'linguistic turn' of philosophy of the twentieth century led to the overestimation of the role of logic in the proces understanding of meaning and in the consequent 'dissolution' of traditional philosophical problems. This is not to say that logic, in this respect, would be useless - on the contrary, it is very important; but we must understand that the role it can sensibly play is the Wittgensteinian role of helping us build simplified models of natural language (with all possibilities and limitations models have), not the Carnapian role of reducing meaning, without a remainder, to logico-mathematical construct. It this paper, I try to throw some new light on this situation in terms of distinguishing two perspectives that may be assumed to look at an expression: the expression-as-object perspective (looking at the relation between an expression and its meaning as a contingent, a posteriori matter) and the expression-as-medium perspective (looking at this relation as something necessary or a priori).
