Ramsey, Carnap, and Grice on Θ

------------- By J. L. Speranza, of the Grice Club.
---------------------- For the Carnap Corner.

----- WHILE in the treatment of these topics (e.g. by Schiffer, "Ceteris Paribus Laws") I've seen "T" to symbolise Theory (and cfr. the interesting generalisations by Rescher using T as theory of everything in "Theory of everything (philosophy)", wiki, I would follow this link below, and call me pedantic if I find the Greek letter, theta, a good one to signal "theory", too.

Ref.:
Empirical Adequacy and Ramsificationby J Ketland - 2004

realist who accepts a scientific theory Θ thinks that Θ is empirically .... gically interpreted (e.g., by Carnap-Bridgman style correspondence rules).
