Grammar in Early Twentieth-Century Philosophy What is the philosophical - photo 1

Grammar in Early Twentieth-Century Philosophy

What is the philosophical significance of grammar? No period in the history of philosophy provides a richer source of materials for the consideration of this question than the period running from the end of the nineteenth century to the Second World War.

In this book, ten essays examine the contributions made to the issue of the philosophical significance of grammar by Frege, Russell, Bradley, Husserl, Wittgenstein, Carnap, and Heidegger. The substantial introduction presents the reader with a systematic perspective on some of the issues explored by these philosophers. The questions raised by these philosophers include the following: If language is about the world, and language is governed by grammar, can the world be said to have a kind of grammar also? If so, what does this grammar look like? Is such a grammar a reflection of some empirical language, or perhaps an idealization of grammatical features of empirical language? Is there a privileged grammar of a natural or artificial language which we can regard as providing us with a unique and privileged access to the metaphysical structure of the world?

This book consists of major research papers written by a team of specialists, all but one published here for the first time. It will be of interest not only to established scholars working in metaphysics and the philosophy of language, but also to graduates and advanced undergraduates specializing in these areas.

Richard Gaskin is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Liverpool, and has held visiting appointments at the Universities of Edinburgh, Mainz and Bonn. He has extensive publications in ancient, medieval and modern metaphysics and philosophy of language, including The Sea Battle and the Master Argument: Aristotle and Diodorus Cronus on the Metaphysics of the Future (Walter de Gruyter, 1995).
