  • The Conflict of Interpretations: Essays in Hermeneutics

    N L Wilson, Neil Wilson et al.REVIEWContemporary Sociology A Journal…1975

    This collection brings together twenty-two essays by Paul Ricoeur under the topics of structuralism, psychoanalysis, hermeneutics, and religion. In dramatic conciseness, the essays illuminate the work of one of the leading philosophers of the day. Those interested in Ricoeur's development of the philosophy of language will find rich and suggestive reading. But the diversity of essays also speaks beyond the confines of philosophy to linguists, the…

  • The Two Main Problems of Philosophy

    Open AccessN L WilsonARTICLEDialogue1973Cited by: 1References: 1

    One of the main problems is of course the mind-body problem. It'snot really a question as to how there can be such disparate things as protons and electrons on the one hand, and such things as desires on the other, cohabiting the same universe and apparently having quite a lot to do with each other. For, provided that we are not squeamish about committing the pathetic fallacy, we can attribute desires to any kind of servomechanism, we can claim t…

  • Grice on Meaning: The Ultimate Counter-Example

    N L WilsonARTICLENoûs1970

    Grice concedes (on 151 of [3]) that the definiendum of primary interest is (A): By uttering x U meant that p. Nevertheless he devoted most of the 1957 paper and a considerable portion of the present one to a treatment of (B), By uttering x U meant something. Then, elaborating on that treatment he proceeds to an analysis of (A). For the moment I shall deal with (B) and I shall discuss the initial unrefined definiens (taken over from the 1957 paper…

  • The Philosophy of Rudolf Carnap

    Open AccessN L WilsonARTICLEDialogue1965

    Many of the essays in this volume were written about ten years ago and a fair amount of philosophical water has passed under the bridge since then. Nevertheless the appearance of the book at this delayed date is perhaps a good thing—and not just because it contains some of Carnap's final formulations. Philosophical fashions have shifted away from Carnap's preoccupations and the appearance of the book now may serve to remind the public how very im…

  • The Trouble with Meanings

    Open AccessN L WilsonARTICLEDialogue1964References: 2

    The doctrine I have in mind is the theory of intensional meanings, the theory according to which unitary descriptive expressions (and some complex ones) have not only extensions, but intensions as well. According to this theory, found in fullest flower in Carnap's Meaning and Necessity , individual expressions, one-place predicates and sentences, have corresponding to them individual concepts, properties and propositions respectively, these latte…
