---- By J. L. Speranza, of the Grice Circle
---------- for the Carnap Corner
--- Roger Bishop Jones may not be welcoming the 'we' in header, or the verb ('love') but that's because he loves ALL CARNAPS. The Carnap I particularly love is the one I identify with quotes like this below, from an online source:
"Carnap and Ayer ridiculed the whole debate as mystical nonsense."
--- any old debate: realism vs. idealism, monism vs. pluralism (I think the case is in the above quote), objectivism vs. subjectivism, libertarianism vs. determinism -- and the REST of them!
----- Grice Studies. Get your PhD NOW
-------- Carnap Studies -- Get your PhD -- YESTERDAY!
(Just joking: on the idea that Carnap makes the study of philosophy (as we knew it) quite a lovely study to undertake: Imagine his suggested readings for "Metaphysics II". What a genius!)
We need to consider Philosophy (or at least _I_ should) as it applies to items _Grice_ found of interest, which makes the thing funNER!
