Naturalist debate about meaning in life got stuck in an aporetic status. Objectivists, subjectivists, and hybridists cannot respond satisfactorily to some strong objections which undermine the further development of analytical investigation on the subject. After describing the core aspects of traditional theories and the related objections, I survey some recent remarks which suggest that meaning is a polysemic concept. Finally, I propose a multidimensional approach, arguing that we have several reasons to adopt it both to overcome the debate’s current problems and to better understand standard theories’ intuitions.
