Language has been assigned a fundamental role by philosophers, scientists and so on. This turn represents the theoretical context of this paper, which aims to analyze the conceptions of B. F. Skinner and J. L. Austin about human knowledge, in particular: (a) the concepts and principles involved; (b) their relation to language; and (c) the compatibilities between these authors. The paper was guided by two sets of conceptual references. The first one was B. F. Skinner's radical behaviorism, and the second one was the analytic philosophy, from the standpoint of Wittgenstein's work and Austin's speech acts theory, The first point discussed is Skinner's and Austin's commitment to an anti-representationist tradition in philosophy. In addition, the paper discusses the relation between language and reality, knowledge, and the relation between subject and object of knowledge.
