Medieval Philosophy and Modern Times
ISBN: 9780792361022 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Modern developments in philosophy have provided us with tools, logical and methodological, that were not available to Medieval thinkers - a development that has its dangers as well as opportunities. Modern tools allow one to penetrate old texts and analyze old problems in new ways, offering interpretations that the old thinkers could not have known. But unless one remains sensitive to the fact that language has undergone changes, bringing with it a shift in the meaning of terminology, one can easily perpetrate an anachronism.
Yet there is a growing need to bring modern tools and to bear... Modern developments in philosophy have provided us with tools, logical and methodological, that were not available to Medieval thinkers - a developmen...

Ludwig Wittgenstein: Half-Truths and One-And-A-Half-Truths
ISBN: 9780792340911 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 354 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. 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. 16-18 dni roboczych. 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...

From Dedekind to Gödel: Essays on the Development of the Foundations of Mathematics
ISBN: 9780792334842 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 460 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Discussions of the foundations of mathematics and their history are frequently restricted to logical issues in a narrow sense, or else to traditional problems of analytic philosophy. From Dedekind to Godel: Essays on the Development of the Foundations of Mathematics illustrates the much greater variety of the actual developments in the foundations during the period covered. The viewpoints that serve this purpose included the foundational ideas of working mathematicians, such as Kronecker, Dedekind, Borel and the early Hilbert, and the development of notions like...

Lingua Universalis vs. Calculus Ratiocinator:: An Ultimate Presupposition of Twentieth-Century Philosophy
ISBN: 9780792342465 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. R. G. Collingwood saw one of the main tasks of philosophers and of historians of human thought in uncovering what he called the ultimate presuppositions of different thinkers, of different philosophical movements and of entire eras of intellectual history. He also noted that such ultimate presuppositions usually remain tacit at first, and are discovered only by subsequent reflection. Collingwood would have been delighted by the contrast that constitutes the overall theme of the essays collected in this volume. Not only has this dichotomy ofviews been one ofthe mostcrucial watersheds in the...

Aspects of Metaphor
ISBN: 9789048143856 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. 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)....

Analyses of Aristotle
ISBN: 9789048165780 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 238 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Aristotle thought of his logic and methodology as applications of the Socratic questioning method. In particular, logic was originally a study of answers necessitated by earlier answers. For Aristotle, thought-experiments were real experiments in the sense that by realizing forms in one's mind, one can read off their properties and interrelations. Treating forms as independent entities, knowable one by one, committed Aristotle to his mode of syllogistic explanation. He did not think of existence, predication and identity as separate senses of estin. Aristotle thus serves as an...

Models for Modalities: Selected Essays
ISBN: 9789027705983 / Angielski / Miękka / 1975 / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. 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,...

Socratic Epistemology: Explorations of Knowledge-Seeking by Questioning
ISBN: 9780521851015 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Most current work in epistemology deals with the evaluation and justification of information already acquired. In this book, Jaakko Hintikka instead discusses the more important problem of how knowledge is acquired in the first place. His model of information-seeking is the old Socratic method of questioning, which has been generalized and brought up-to-date through the logical theory of questions and answers that he has developed.

Paradigms for Language Theory and Other Essays
ISBN: 9789048149308 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 310 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Several of the basic ideas of current language theory are subjected to critical scrutiny and found wanting, including the concept of scope, the hegemony of generative syntax, the Frege-Russell claim that verbs like is' are ambiguous, and the assumptions underlying the so-called New Theory of Reference. In their stead, new constructive ideas are proposed.

Anaphora and Definite Descriptions: Two Applications of Game-Theoretical Semantics
ISBN: 9789027720566 / Angielski / Miękka / 1985 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. 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...
