In Sensu Diviso

While we approach this subject let us be reminded of the context, as per R. E. Dale's PhD dissertation, online, "The theory of meaning", CUNY, at

http://www.russelldale.com/dissertation/

-- Dale quotes from Lewis:

"My answer is that [the utterer] can have them
in sensu diviso; to do that, he does not
need to share our complicated concept of a
possible language. ..."

and notes:

"The notion of reading a sentence in sensu diviso can
be traced to Aristotle, though Lewis seems to have appropriated the notion from Abelard."

Etc. Later!
