Ludwig Wittgenstein: Half-Truths and One-And-A-Half-Truths
ISBN: 9780792340911 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 354 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) IF WITI'GENSTEIN COULD TALK, COULD WE UNDERSTAND HIM? Perusing the secondary literature on Wittgenstein, I have frequently experienced a perfect Brechtean Entfremdungseffekt. This is interesting, I have felt like saying when reading books and papers on Wittgenstein, but who is the writer talking about? Certainly not Ludwig Wittgenstein the actual person who wrote his books and notebooks and whom I happened to meet. Why is there this strange gap between the ideas of the actual philosopher and the musings of his interpreters? Wittgenstein is talking to us through the posthumous publication of...

Knowledge and the Known: Historical Perspectives in Epistemology
ISBN: 9789401022194 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 255 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) A word of warning concerning the aims of this volume is in order. Other wise some readers might be unpleasantly surprised by the fact that two of the chapters of an ostensibly historical book are largely topical rather than historical. They are Chapters 7 and 9, respectively entitled 'Are Logical Truths Analytic?' and 'A Priori Truths and Things-In-Them selves'. Moreover, the history dealt with in Chapter 11 is so recent as to have more critical than antiquarian interest. This mixture of materials may seem all the more surprising as I shall myself criticize (in Chapter I) too facile...

Aspects of Metaphor
ISBN: 9789048143856 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Metaphor is one of the most frequently evoked but at the same time most poorly understood concepts in philosophy and literary theory. In recent years, several interesting approaches to metaphor have been presented or outlined. In this volume, authors of some of the most important new approaches re-present their views or illustrate them by means of applications, thus allowing the reader to survey some of the prominent ongoing developments in this field. These authors include Robert Fogelin, Susan Haack, Jaakko Hintikka (with Gabriel Sandu), Bipin Indurkhya and Eva Kittay (with Eric Steinhart)....

Philosophy and Logic in Search of the Polish Tradition: Essays in Honour of Jan Woleński on the Occasion of His 60th Birthday
ISBN: 9781402017216 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) On the occasion of bis sixtieth birthday, we dedicate this volume to Jan Wo- leriski-s-our teacher, our colleague, our friend. Both of us are particularly indebted to Jan not only with regards to profes- sional matters, but some private ones as well. Hence, we hope that he forgives us an occasional lapse into fondness and affection. That said, may the list of bis personalmerits remain shrouded in mystery; rather than unveil them, we open here by appraising Jan's presence from a broader perspective. Tonote that Jan was not always a part of our lives would not evoke surprise. However, to...

Models for Modalities: Selected Essays
ISBN: 9789027700780 / Angielski / Twarda / 1975 / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) The papers collected in this volume were written over a period of some eight or nine years, with some still earlier material incorporated in one of them. Publishing them under the same cover does not make a con- tinuous book of them. The papers are thematically connected with each other, however, in a way which has led me to think that they can naturally be grouped together. In any list of philosophically important concepts, those falling within the range of application of modal logic will rank high in interest. They include necessity, possibility, obligation, permission, knowledge, belief,...

The Method of Analysis: Its Geometrical Origin and Its General Significance

As official sponsors of the First International Conference in the History and Philosophy of Science, the two Divisions of the International Union of the History and Philosophy of Science owe a great deal to the University of Jyvliskyla and the 1973 Jyvliskylli Summer Festival for the extra- ordinarily generous hospitality they provided. But there is an additional debt owed, not simply for the locale but for the very substance of the Conference, to the two Finnish scholars who have jointly authored the present volume. For this volume represents not only the first part of the published...

The Logic of Epistemology and the Epistemology of Logic: Selected Essays
ISBN: 9780792300410 / Angielski / Miękka / 1989 / 246 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) somewhat like Henkin's nonstandard interpretation of higher-order logics, while the right semantics or logical modalities is an analogue to the standard of type theory in Henkin's sense. interpretation Another possibility would be to follow W.V. Quine's advice to give up logi cal modalities as being beyond repair. Or we could also try to develop a logic of conceptual possibility, restricting the range of our "possible worlds" to those compatible with the transcendental presuppositions of our own conceptual sys tem. This looks in fact like one of the most interesting possible theories I have...

The Principles of Mathematics Revisited
ISBN: 9780521624985 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This book, written by one of philosophy's preeminent logicians, argues that many of the basic assumptions common to logic, philosophy of mathematics and metaphysics are in need of change. Jaakko Hintikka proposes a new basic first-order logic and uses it to explore the foundations of mathematics. This new logic enables logicians to express on the first-order level such concepts as equicardinality, infinity, and truth in the same language. Hintikka's new logic is highly original and will prove appealing to logicians, philosophers of mathematics, and mathematicians concerned with the...

The Intentions of Intentionality and Other New Models for Modalities
ISBN: 9789027706348 / Angielski / Miękka / 1975 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) The leisure to do the thinking whose results are gathered here has largely been provided by the Academy of Finland, whose support has also made possible the help and co-operation of a group of younger logicians and philosophers. Less tangible support and help is unfortunately harder to record and to thank for. Once again, in working on the many themes I have tried to weave together in this book I have incurred more intellectual and moral debts I can in so many words acknowledge here. Let me only say that the closer to home I get the greater they become. I have especially in mind my colleagues...

Anaphora and Definite Descriptions: Two Applications of Game-Theoretical Semantics
ISBN: 9789027720559 / Angielski / Twarda / 1985 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) I n order to appreciate properly what we are doing in this book it is necessary to realize that our approach to linguistic theorizing differs from the prevailing views. Our approach can be described by indicating what distinguishes it from the methodological ideas current in theoretical linguistics, which I consider seriously misguided. Linguists typically construe their task in these days as that of making exceptionless generalizations from particular examples. This explanatory strategy is wrong in several different ways. It presupposes that we can have "intuitions" about particular...

Lingua Universalis vs. Calculus Ratiocinator:: An Ultimate Presupposition of Twentieth-Century Philosophy
ISBN: 9789048147540 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Twentieth-century philosophy has tacitly been dominated by a deep contrast between universalist and model-theoretical visions of language. The role of this contrast is studied here in Peirce, Frege, Wittgenstein, Carnap, Quine, Husserl, Heidegger and in the development of logical theory. Hintikka also develops a new approach to truth-definitions which strongly supports the model-theoretical view.

Inquiry as Inquiry: A Logic of Scientific Discovery
ISBN: 9789048151394 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 290 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Is a genuine logic of scientific discovery possible? In the essays collected here, Hintikka not only defends an affirmative answer; he also outlines such a logic. It is the logic of questions and answers. Thus inquiry in the sense of knowledge-seeking becomes inquiry in the sense of interrogation. Using this new logic, Hintikka establishes a result that will undoubtedly be considered the fundamental theorem of all epistemology, viz., the virtual identity of optimal strategies of pure discovery with optimal deductive strategies. Questions to Nature, of course, must include...
