Abstract
Our purpose in this paper is to reconstruct the proposal on “de re thoughts” or singular thoughts that John McDowell develops. Our strategy is to address this reconstruction on the basis of “the unboundedness of the conceptual” thesis explained in his most recent production. The contrast between some aspects in Mind and World (1994) and previous articles dedicated to the singular thought gives a concrete explanatory value to the thesis that claims that the conceptual is unbounded.
