Re: Austin's Play Group, or "the Oxford School of Ordinary Language
Philosophy",
"[I]t no doubt absorbed its fare share of the hatred
and derision lavished upon this 'School' by so
many people, like for
example Gellner, or
like Gustav Bergmann who (it was said), when
asked
whether he was going to hear a paper
delivered on a visit by an eminent
British
philosopher, replied with characteristic charm
that he did not
propose to waste his
time on any English Futilitarian."

intentions, categories, ends",
