H. P. Grice: A Catalogue Raisonné, Being A Chronological Combined Checklist Of His Publications And Unpublications
Have you noted that sometimes people -- Griceians, I mean -- do not seem to know how to quote from a Grice 'unpublication'?
Here is some advice as to how to combine Grice's publications (say, his "Logic and Conversation") with his unpublications (say, his "Logic and Conversation").
And, to use a Griceianism, 'at one fell swoop'!
*********THE COMBINED PUBLICATIONS AND UNPUBLICATIONS*******
chronological
One good thing about H. P. Grice is that he falls under the Keyword: "20th-century Philosophy." Born in 1913, died in 1988. This makes things neat.
******
Grice, H. P. (1938). 'Negation and privation,' The H. P. Grice Papers, BANC MSS 90/135c, The Bancroft Library, University of California, Berkeley. Grice kept an interest on negation, especially after his tuttee P. F. Strawson made some awful remarks about it in "Introduction to Logical Theory"!
It is not clear why Grice would be interested in an 'empiricist' account of 'negation' (and technically, 'negation' and 'privation') back in 1938. Most likely after reading Aristotle. Most likely upon reflecting on Greek, and the 'a-' particle. Or most likely for some other reason!
-- (1941). 'Personal identity,' Mind. Repr. in J. Perry, Personal Identity. Berkeley, CA: University of California Press. Grice is interested in refuting Gallie, and using Broad to systematise different approaches to the analysis of 'personal identity,' choosing a 'logical-construction' approach.
It is not clear why Grice would be interested in "Someone" sentences. He is not specifically interested in what Anscombe would have as "I." Grice's analysans is "Someone heard a noise." It could well be his brother Dereck!

-- (1948). 'Meaning,' Repr. in WoW as one of the Essays in Part II, "Semantics and Metaphysics,". Previously published in "The Philosophical Review" in 1957 (from a typed version by Anne Strawson of Grice's original handwritten manuscript). Grice is interested in the lexeme 'meaning,' as misused by certain philosophers. The only philosopher he cares to quote in this essay is C. L. Stevenson, whose "Ethics and Language," was becoming popular in Oxford.
It is good to think that Grice had read Peirce and was tired of his (Peirce's techno-krypticisms). Grice, being English, finds English philosophers should be concerned with 'mean,' rather. Oddly, in his 'Retrospective Epilogue,' written ages later, Grice does use 'signification,' which shows that he never ceased being a 'classicist'!
-- (1950). 'Dispositions and intentions,' The H. P. Grice Papers, BANC MSS 90/135c, The Bancroft Library, The University of California, Berkeley. There is a variant of this essay with annotations by members of Grice's Play Group. By 'disposition,' Grice is referring to the 'analytic behaviouristic approach' by Gilbert Ryle, popularised in "The concept of mind.'
This is an excellent study. 'Meaning' makes an informal use of 'intending'. The most horrific part is when he says that 'mean to' Grice will consider as falling under the 'sense' which he calls 'non-natural' of "mean". And he only quotes from the American philosopher C. L. Stevenson. In this 'unpublication,' he takes, on the other hand, Ryle's treatment of the concept of 'mind' (as in 'mind your own business') seriously!
-- (1957). 'Meaning' -- vide 'Meaning' (1948). It was Strawson's idea, after having published "In defense of a dogma" with Grice, to have his (Strawson's) wife type this handwritten 1948 manuscript and submit it to the same review where they had submitted "In defence of a dogma." Perhaps Strawson was looking to give some prestige to his collaborator.
It was a good idea by Strawson to do what he did. It made philosophy within Oxford to become relevant _without_ Oxford. In due time, Grice will become an un-Oxonian philosopher, invited by Oxford to deliver the very Oxford (but to be delivered by a 'furriner') John Locke Lectures.

-- (1961). 'The causal theory of perception,' repr. in WoW (as one of the Essays in Part II: Semantics and Metaphysics). Proceedings of the Aristotelian Society. A symposium with A. R. White, repr. in G. J. Warnock, The philosophy of perception. Oxford readings in philosophy.
It is very understandable to see why Grice would have an interest in things like "That pillar box seems red to me." The Wittgensteinians were saying all sorts of odd things about them!
-- (1961). 'Negation,' The H. P. Grice Papers, BANC MSS 90/135c, The Bancroft Library, University of California, Berkeley. Grandy/Warner quote this as "Lectures on negation."
This is post-Strawson ("Introduction to logical theory"). Strawson had considered the distinction between the tilde and 'not.' Grice offers his Russellian-Whiteheadian defense!
-- (1964). 'Logic and conversation,' The H. P. Grice Papers, BANC MSS 90/135c. These are the Oxford lectures on implicature (explained in terms of the principles of conversational self-interest and conversational benevolence), later revised for Harvard. It was in this lectures that Grice started to use 'implicature' to oppose it to 'implication.' While at Harvard he joked with introducing 'implicature' as term of art, he had done that at Oxford a couple of years earlier!
One can understand Grice's choice of the keyword 'conversation.' (Vide his notes on cooperation, helpfulness, conversational self-interest, conversational benevolence, and the choice of the conversational dyad as a unit). It is less easy to understand the keyword: 'logic.' But then Strawson had written "Introduction to Logical Theory," which had been praised by Oxonian philosophers like J. O. Urmson and G. J. Warnock ("English Philosophy") as ordinary-language way to do logic, and Grice was justifiably offended!

-- (1966). Some remarks about the senses. In R. J. Butler, Analytic Philosophy. Oxford: Blackwell. Repr. in WoW. Grice was, as a typical English philosopher, a philosopher of perception. His work on perception was mainly pursued through the rich collaboration of G. J. Warnock, later Vice-Chancelor of Oxford.
Only Butler would think that this obscure piece by Grice, so within Oxford, could find appeal without Oxford. It did! But mainly because Blackwell had a branch in the New World!
-- (1967). 'Descartes on clear and distinct perception,' repr. in WoW. Grice played with Descartes a lot (the distinction between subjective and objective certainty). Colin McGinn has referred to Grice's model as telementational, in honour to Descartes.
Grice loved Kantotle, but Keyword: Descartes comes second!
-- (1967). 'Utterer's meaning and intentions,' The Philosophical Review. Being the fifth William James lecture, repr. in WoW. While Grice was not prepared to publish the complete William James lecturers _in toto_, he managed to get this essay in The Philosophical Review. It contains his responses to alleged counterexamples to his original 1948 'Meaning' by Urmson, Strawson, and a few others.
Grice is determined to give a conceptual analysis of "By uttering x, U means that p" in terms of necessary and sufficient conditions. It's not so much "Meaning revisited," but "Meaning with a vengeance"!

-- (1968). 'Utterer's meaning, sentence meaning, and word meaning,'The Foundations of Language. Being the sixth William James lecture, repr. in WoW. Again, as Grice was unprepared to publish his whole Harvard lectures, he was able to submit this to "The Foundations of Language". It contains a detailed account of what Grice sees as the two main functions of an expression of the form "The alpha is beta" (a 'shaggy-dog' story, as he calls it). The essay gained some popularity after it was reprinted by J. R. Searle in "The Philosophy of Language," in the "Oxford Readings in Philosophy" series published by G. J. Warnock.
In "Meaning," Grice notes that not all ends with "by uttering x, U means that p." One needs an analysis, in terms of 'population,' of what an 'expression' (such as a 'sentence' or a 'word') means. This he does here!

-- (1969). 'Vacuous Names,' in D. Davidson and J. Hintikka, eds. Words and objections. Dordrecht: Reidel. Repr. in part in Definite Descriptions, MIT. It contains a clever response by W. V. O. Quine, which is often dismissed.
Grice is being jocular by NOT focusing on Quine's critique of analysis (a dogma of empiricism, for Quine). Instead, Grice focuses on Quine's idea of getting rid of 'Pegasus' and using 'to pegasusise' instead! It all boils down, for Grice, to a scope-indicating device. He uses numeral subscripts here. He would later use square brackets -- the implicature is the same!
-- (1970). 'Basic Pirotese,' The H. P. Grice Papers, BANC MSS 90/135c, The Bancroft Library, University of California, Berkeley.
Grice found Carnap's "Pirots karulise elatically" exhilarating. Pirotese is the lingo used in 'pirotology.' A pirot is any agent. Pirotology ends with the description of, alla Locke (as Grice quotes), "very intelligent, rational [pirots]," i.e. "hopefully us."

-- (1971). Intention and uncertainty. Proceedings of the British Academy. To be published in Grice, "Philosophical Papers," vol. 1, Clarendon. Rumour has it that Grice chose the provocative title as a response to what Hart and Hampshire were saying, in "Mind" about intention and certainty.
Rumour has it that Grice was offended by Hampshire's and Hart's "Intention and certainty" (Mind). Instead, he goes back to Prichard, and via Kenny and Anscombe, ends up with a form of neo-Prichardianism that bases the concept of 'indenting' on 'willing that-' and some causal restrictions.

-- (1975). 'Method in philosophical psychology: from the banal to the bizarre,' Proceedings of the American Philosophical Association, Presidential Address, Repr. in Grice, The Conception of Value. Grice felt the need to make it explicit what he stand towards psychological predicates was. He introduces pirotology as an approach to philosophical psychology.
If Grice had explored Ryle in "Dispositions and intention," he takes behaviourism even more seriously here. Grice ends up endorsing a variety of 'functionalism,' where psychological predicates are defined in terms of input (sensorial) and output (behavioural). His pirot of choice here is Toby, a squarrel.

-- (1975). 'Logic and conversation,' in D. Davidson and G. Harman, Logic and Grammar -- being the second William James lecture, repr. in WoW. (While the thing was also published in Cole and Morgan, Grice would systematically cite this as per the "Logic and Grammar" edition -- the philosopher he was).
Harman and Davidson thought that 'implicature' was too good a concept to remain in an 'unpublication' and they asked Grice to allow him to reprint the second Harvard lecture in a very philosophical (yet cheap) publication -- it's double-columned!
-- (1975). 'Wants and needs,' The H. P. Grice Papers, Series V, Carton IX, BANC MSS 90/135c, The Bancroft Library, The University of California, Berkeley.
Grice is concerned with conation: intending that, willing that, wanting that, and needing that...

-- (1978). 'Further notes on logic and conversation,' in P. Cole, Syntax and Semantics -- Being the third William James lecture, repr. in WoW.
Given the success that "Logic and Conversation" (in the Cole/Morgan reprint) had had, Cole thought of asking Grice to allow him to reprint the third Harvard lecture. It explains what Grice has behind his attempt not to multiply senses beyond necessity -- plus an elaboration on 'irony,' 'stress,' and 'truth.' All very fascinating.
-- (1981). Presupposition and conversational implicature. In Cole, Radical Pragmatics. Grice's criticism of Strawson's truth-value gap theory.
Robbing Peter to pay Paul, that was Grice's motto. Since "Introduction to Logical Theory," by Strawson, but quoting Grice, Grice had been intent to apply his concept of a pragmatic (not logical) inference to 'logical operators.' He saw himself as a heir to "Principia Mathematica." It's natural that the operator 'the,' that he lists in the second Harvard lecture, would sooner or later become a topic of its own!

-- (1982). 'Meaning revisited,' in N. V. Smith, Mutual knowledge. Croom Helm. Repr. in WoW. A development of his views on 'meaning,' especially valuable for applying his parsimony razor to the 'meaning' lexeme itself. It contains a major problem too, as he connects 'meaning' with questions of 'value.'
This is not 'meaning with a vengeance,' since Grice's objective is quite humble: to make his reflections available to 'the general public.' He deals with 'meaning' as having just one sense -- and applies his pirotology -- without using 'pirot' to a myth about the phylogeny of meaning. All very fascinating. The thing end with a discussion of a keyword that Grice was getting obsessive with: 'value.' "Meaning," after all, may well be, like 'sentence,' or 'king' or 'cabbage,' a "value-oriented" concept.

-- (1986). 'Reply to Richards,' in PGRICE, Philosophical Grounds of Rationality: Intentions, Categories, Ends, edited by R. O. Warner and R. E. Grandy. Clarendon Press. Originally entitled, "Prejudices and predilections, which become, the life and opinions of Paul Grice."
The festschrift -- Grice never cared to give individual responses to the contributors -- was just an excuse for Grice to publish his "Prejudices and predilections" (note: not "predilections and prejudices"), "... which become the life and opinions of Paul Grice," one of his most fascinating pieces, where he reminisces the time with his nonconformist father back in Harborne, and beyond!

-- (1986). 'Actions and events,' Pacific Philosophical Quarterly. Grice's elaborations of metaphysics, with special emphasis on the concept of 'freedom.'
The trigger for this must be Davidson. But Grice manages to quote from Reichenbach and indeed go beyond Davidson by providing a linguistic botany of 'free' (as in 'alcohol-free')!
-- (1987). 'Retrospective Epilogue,' in WoW. A revision of the many strands he identifies in the essays he selects for the introduction of this volume, which, by contract, he had to publish with the Harvard University Press.
The whole point of reprinting his essays with Harvard University Press was for Grice to provide a "Retrospective Epilogue," which is more like a 'valediction' (a term he also used elsewhere). He identifies the many strands in his theorising over this and that, and he manages to make the topics fascinating -- especially when he starts talking of the "Oxonian dialectic" that he knew so well!
-- (1987). 'Foreword,' in WoW.
A short thing, just to dismiss Bennett's proposal to have a totally different ordering for the essays compiled in WoW.
-- (1987). 'Metaphysics, philosophical eschatology, and Plato's Republic,' in WoW. A discussion and definition of 'eschatology,' and an application of it to the treatment of the epithet 'right' as used by Socrates in Plato's "Republic." (legal vs. moral right).
Grice has become obsessed with 'metaphysics' (as he wants to see himself as an enemy of the long-defunct Vienna circle). Grice finds that the traditional distinctions in metaphysics are lacking 'philosophical eschatology,' which deals with 'trans-categorial epithets,' rather. His choice here is 'right,' as used by Socrates in "Republic." It connects with remarks Grice makes about the priority of 'priority' (conceptual, epistemological) when it comes to things like objects (or material things) and sense data, or 'morality' and 'legality'.

-- (1988). 'Aristotle on the multiplicity of being,' Pacific Philosophical Quarterly. Edited by B. F. Loar. It contains Grice's earlier reflections, with A. D. Code, on izzing (essential) and hazzing (accidental) properties.
If Descartes features in some of Grice's publications and unpublications, his philosopher of choice is Kantotle. This is an essay formulated thanks to some collaborations with A. D. Code. It is particularly fascinating when Grice starts playing, axiomatically, with 'izzing' and 'hazzing.'

These brief lectures end up providing a justification of objective, absolute value -- and without mentioning Kant much!

These were delivered BEFORE the Carus lectures. "Reasoning" features large in Grice's publications and unpublications, and it's only logical that he would find the occasion provided by Oxford to expand on the topic.
*****(B) COLLABORATIONS -- alphabetically by surname of collaborator ******
AND J. BAKER.
Grice was fortunate in having a collaborator like Judith Baker. She has popularised some of Grice's views, notably in a memorable symposium for the American Philosophical Association, excerpted in "The Journal of Philosophy."
-- And J. Baker, (1985), 'Davidson on weakness of the will,' in M. Hintikka and B. Vermazen. Oxford: Clarendon Press. A criticism to Davidson's probability-calculus idea that 'akrasia' is conceptually nonsensical.
'Akrasia' is conceptually important to Grice, because, armed with some symbolism, he can prove Davidson wrong!
-- (1980). 'Reflections on morals.' A book-length piece, according to Grandy/Warner. It occupies many folders.
-- (1982). 'Kant's Ethical Theory'. At Berkeley, Baker and Judith were concerned with the giving of seminars on both Aristotle and Kant. Hence Grice's idea of compiling both authors under "Kantotle."
-- WITH A. D. CODE.
While Grice would play "Kantotle" with J. L. Ackrill and J. L. Austin at Oxford, it was good he found Code at Berkeley.
-- And A. D. Code (1980). 'Izzing and Hazzing,' The H. P. Grice Papers, BANC MSS 90/135c, The Bancroft Library, University of California, Berkeley. Part of this reflections are developed by Grice in his "Aristotle and the multiplicity of being" that B. F. Loar published for the Pacific Philosophical Quarterly in 1988.
-- WITH FRIEDMAN.
-- And M. Friedman (1988). 'Universals,' The H. P. Grice Papers, BANC MSS 90/135c, The Bancroft Library, University of California, Berkeley.
-- WITH G. MYRO
Grice first cites from Myro in "Vacuous Names." Grice was fascinated by Myro's expertise in logic! (Myro was Russian, so it is logical that Grice would NOT be fascinated by Myro's expertise in linguistic botanising, say!)
-- And G. Myro (1980). 'Identity,' in The H. P. Grice Papers, BANC MSS 90/135c, The Bancroft Library, University of California, Berkeley. If Grice coined a System Q to honour Quine, Myro coined a System G to honour Grice.
-- WITH D. F. PEARS
Pears is a very English, gentle, philosopher. He credits Grice in a number of publications, and Grice found his collaboration with Pears to be gentle as Pears was.
-- And D. F. Pears (1950). Philosophical psychology. Referred to by Grice in "Reply to Richards." Pears refers to Grice in Pears's essay in The Canadian Journal of Philosophy and his essay on "Motivated Irrationality." Pears, like Grice, was a member of Austin's second Play Group.
WITH J. F. STAAL
As with Myro, we have a 'furriner' here so it's logical that Grice found Staal useful when it came to technical notions in syntax and semantics, rather than, say, linguistic botanising!
-- And J. F. Staal (n.d.). 'The 'that'-clause,' The H. P. Grice Papers, BANC MSS 90/135c, The Bancroft Library, The University of California, Berkeley.
-- AND P. F. STRAWSON
"Robbin Peter to pay Paul" is perhaps Grice's favourite motto -- the original motto refers to the two churches in London --. Grice calls Strawson his 'student', 'friend' and 'favourite knight.' They were collaborators (not just 'Defence of a dogma,' but work on "Categories") but Strawson's account of the divergences between Principia Mathematica and English offended Grice!
These were delivered BEFORE the Carus lectures. "Reasoning" features large in Grice's publications and unpublications, and it's only logical that he would find the occasion provided by Oxford to expand on the topic.

-- (1982). 'Kant's Ethical Theory'. At Berkeley, Baker and Judith were concerned with the giving of seminars on both Aristotle and Kant. Hence Grice's idea of compiling both authors under "Kantotle."
-- WITH A. D. CODE.
While Grice would play "Kantotle" with J. L. Ackrill and J. L. Austin at Oxford, it was good he found Code at Berkeley.
-- And A. D. Code (1980). 'Izzing and Hazzing,' The H. P. Grice Papers, BANC MSS 90/135c, The Bancroft Library, University of California, Berkeley. Part of this reflections are developed by Grice in his "Aristotle and the multiplicity of being" that B. F. Loar published for the Pacific Philosophical Quarterly in 1988.
-- WITH FRIEDMAN.
-- And M. Friedman (1988). 'Universals,' The H. P. Grice Papers, BANC MSS 90/135c, The Bancroft Library, University of California, Berkeley.
-- WITH G. MYRO
Grice first cites from Myro in "Vacuous Names." Grice was fascinated by Myro's expertise in logic! (Myro was Russian, so it is logical that Grice would NOT be fascinated by Myro's expertise in linguistic botanising, say!)
-- And G. Myro (1980). 'Identity,' in The H. P. Grice Papers, BANC MSS 90/135c, The Bancroft Library, University of California, Berkeley. If Grice coined a System Q to honour Quine, Myro coined a System G to honour Grice.
-- WITH D. F. PEARS
Pears is a very English, gentle, philosopher. He credits Grice in a number of publications, and Grice found his collaboration with Pears to be gentle as Pears was.
-- And D. F. Pears (1950). Philosophical psychology. Referred to by Grice in "Reply to Richards." Pears refers to Grice in Pears's essay in The Canadian Journal of Philosophy and his essay on "Motivated Irrationality." Pears, like Grice, was a member of Austin's second Play Group.
WITH J. F. STAAL
As with Myro, we have a 'furriner' here so it's logical that Grice found Staal useful when it came to technical notions in syntax and semantics, rather than, say, linguistic botanising!
-- And J. F. Staal (n.d.). 'The 'that'-clause,' The H. P. Grice Papers, BANC MSS 90/135c, The Bancroft Library, The University of California, Berkeley.
-- AND P. F. STRAWSON
"Robbin Peter to pay Paul" is perhaps Grice's favourite motto -- the original motto refers to the two churches in London --. Grice calls Strawson his 'student', 'friend' and 'favourite knight.' They were collaborators (not just 'Defence of a dogma,' but work on "Categories") but Strawson's account of the divergences between Principia Mathematica and English offended Grice!
-- And P. F. Strawson (1956). In defence of a dogma. Philosophical Review. Repr. in WoW. Strawson promised Grice that he would never reprint his essay in any of his many volumes, and he kept his word!
-- With P. F. Strawson, and D. F. Pears (1957). 'Metaphysics,' in D. F. Pears, The Nature of Metaphysics. London: Macmillan. It is difficult to see which exactly is Grice's contribution, but they manage to quote from Collingwood, and various other authors.
-- WITH J. F. THOMSON.
Thomson is a very gentle philosopher, and not a lot were interested, as Grice and Thomson were, in philosophy of action, back in Oxford.
-- With J. F. Thomson (1950). Actions. Referred to by Grice in 'Reply to Richards.' While Grice refers to their joint work in the philosophy of action, Thomson's "If" compares to Grice's implicatural approach to the conditional in "Indicative Conditionals."
-- WITH R. O. WARNER.
An excellent amanuensis!
-- With R. O. Warner (n.d.) 'Philosophical notes,' in The H. P. Grice Papers, BANC MSS 90/135c, The Bancroft Library, University of California, Berkeley.
-- WITH G. J. WARNOCK.
A very English philosopher. Almost as English as J. O. Urmson (both were from Yorkshire). Grice found Warnock exquisite and vice versa. Warnock nicely reminisces the occasion when Grice uttered, slighlty out of the blue, 'How clever language is!' It wasn't clear to Warnock if Grice meant Latin, Greek, or English!

APPENDIX: Notes on the publications and unpublications by H. P. Grice.
How we proceed to compose a catalogue raisonné? More specifically: What would a catalogue raisonné of "Griceiana" look like?
That is a rather tricky question, and a Griceian one at that, not without its disimplicatures!
But a catalogue raisonné should also include a secondary bibliography, as it were -- notably oeuvre by his Oxonian colleagues -- not to mention (then why do you?) those authors -- especially Oxonian philosophers -- cited by Grice himself -- or his self, as he'd prefer.

In this essay, Suppes responds to anti-Griceian criticism by Chomsky, Biro, and Yu. Vide: Speranza, correspondence with Biro.
Biro in fact wrote a response to Suppes's response!
Suppes, contra Chomsky, rightly deems Grice an 'intentionalist,' never a 'behaviourist,' as Chomsky wants him in the John Locke lectures on "Reflections on language."

General correspondence to H. P. Grice
General correspondence
The so-called (by the Bancroftians and the Griceians alike) "Grice's Series II" consists of publications by H. P. Grice.
*********************************************************************
Published in "The Philosophical Review" -- but actually written by Grice in 1948 (as stated in WoW -- Way of Words). The paper was first presented at the Oxford Philosophical Society. It influenced H. L. A. Hart in his review of Holloway for the Philosophical Quarterly. It can be seen as a development of Grice's seminars of Peirce's krypto-technicisms on 'semeiotic.'
*********************************************************************
Grice's essay, "Meaning revisited," was presented at a symposium in Brighton. It was repr. by Grice in his WoW. It basically concerns the application of Grice's modified Occam razor to the lexeme "mean"!

KEYWORD: DESCARTES. The Descartes Society of Oxford should do something about this. Pity there is no Descartes Society at Oxford!
This item was reprinted in WoW -- Way of Words. Grice distinguishes between subjective certainty ("I am certain that p") and objective certainty ("It is certain that p"). Unfortunately, Descartes didn't!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The lectures were actually given in the spring term of 1967. Grice was giving seminars at Oxford on "Logic and Conversation" -- and using 'implicature'! -- at an earlier date. For Harvard, he compiled a 'grand programme' which 'echoed Kant' -- hence his jocular use of terms like 'conversational category' (there are four of them!), and 'conversational maxim.' The idea that the maxims follow from a general 'imperative' is Kantian in nature too ("I am enough of a rationalist to call myself a Kantian!")

This item was written by Grice -- with the collaboration of G. Myro -- for a festschrift for W. V. O. Quine (one of Grice's two 'mentors' -- the other being Chomsky).
Grice creates a System Q -- Myro will later re-name this system System G -- or System G-hp (a highly plausible, or hopefully powerful) version of Grice's system Q -- "in gratitude" to Grice.

"Reply to Davidson on 'Intending'"
To be reprinted in Grice, "Philosophical Papers," Clarendon Press.
Davidson loved this reply and refers to it in his own publications. It concerns the idea as to whether the analysis of '... intends...' requires a clause specifying what the intentional agent 'believes.'
Grice notes that Davidson's proposal that it does, based on Grice's idea of 'implicature,' seems "too social" to be true!
The thing is discussed by D. F. Pears in his fascinating "Motivated Irrationality." D. F. Pears loved Grice, and his love was mutual!

This is quoted differently by Bealer. Grice entitled one version as "Definite descriptions in Russell and in the vernacular." It is also cited by authors working on the negation of definite descriptions.
Grice adds a 'manner' maxim to deal with stuff. He also, more importantly, introduces the square-bracket device for 'common ground' assignment, that has been usefully applied by Harnish in his influential essay on 'Implicature and logical form.'

This is one of Grice's 'historical' essays. Kantotle was his favourite author, so no wonder!

During the Second World War, Oxford was closed! But Grice's 'postwar' philosophy was certainly shaped in the pre-war years!

Cfr. Speranza on Grice on negation
A discussion of Bradley, using variables like "The A is not B." "Negation and Privation" should be a better title.
Possibly Grice's first publication. So The Bancroft Library is being slightly vague when they state the material ranges from 1941.
This is vintage 1930s -- 'the swinging thirties'. Note that a label for an audio-tape also reads, "Oxford philosophy in the 1930s and 1940s."
Grice felt very much part of the younger generation that got his education at Oxford in the 1930s -- fresh from Clifton, as he was! ("A Midlands scholarship boy," destined to 'The House,' aka Corpus).

This was repr. in Mind 1941 (pre-war!), and later (oh so much later) by Perry in his University of California Press compilation on "Personal Identiy." It is a Lockean defense of "I" (or personal pronouns generally) in terms of 'mnemonic states.'

The section 1 was taught by someone else (Berkeley always gives choices!)
*********************************************************************
Kant, along with Aristotle ("Kantotle"), was one of Grice's favourite philosophers.
Grice would read Kant in English. When giving the William James lectures, Grice 'echoes' Kant by inventing the four conversational categories (qualitas, quantitas, relatio, modus), and the conversational maxims. In "Method in philosophical psychology" he invents the conversational immanuel that every rational pirot should follow! (vide Speranza, "The Conversational Immanuel.")
*********************************************************************
"Aristotle's Ethics"
With Kant, Aristotle was one of Grice's favourite philosophers ("Kantotle").
Grice sadly realised that, unlike Oxford, at Berkeley, he could not just teach Grice, but he had to give his students a bit of "Kantotle" to "boot"!
*********************************************************************
Notes for the course, "Philosophy 290"
Historical. Vide: "Kantotle." Mainly Kant's ethical theory. Grice disliked Kant's epistemology which had been murdered by Strawson at Oxford in "The Bounds of Sense"!
*********************************************************************
Grice is being a bit pretentious when calling these things 'volumes'.
See next item for preferred citation.
*********************************************************************
Moravcsik was in attendance and taught Grice to distinguish between 'mood' and 'mode.' For Grice, there are two modes: practical and alethic, and indeed, the alethic reduces to the practical -- vide Grandy, "The Journal of Philosophy".
*********************************************************************
Grice managed NEVER to teach an undergrad course at Berkeley!
*********************************************************************
"Kant's Ethics"
Grice is being slightly pretentious when calling these things 'volumes.' Others call them 'stocks of papers'!
*********************************************************************
"Knowledge and Belief"
Grice briefly discusses Gettier at Harvard, and finds Gettier's target "too strong." Grice opts for a 'causal' theory, with provisions.
*********************************************************************
"Kant's Ethics" (continued)
Grice is being a bit snobby when calling these things 'volumes.'
*********************************************************************
Notes for the course, "Philosophy 200."
Myro, a Russian, had a thing for logic, and Grice loved this in Myro -- also that they both loved chess!
*********************************************************************
"Kant"
"Metaphysics and the Language of Philosophy"
"Freedom"
Grice wants to analyse 'sugar-free' and 'alcohol-free' and 'free fall'. He deems 'free' uniguous, though! 'free' in 'free fall' is the primary usage, though!
*********************************************************************
Grice
Historical. Vide: "Kantotle."
*********************************************************************
"The Criteria of Intelligence"
One wonders what happened to Lecture I -- perhaps it never existed (or was cancelled because of bad weather).
*********************************************************************
By 'modest,' Grice means modest. But he implicates 'unpretentious.' Grice uses psi for psychological operators.
Grice preferred to refer his self as a proud 'functionalist,' than a mentalist, however modest.

The "That"-Clause
Grice/Staaal.
The "Series IV" includes notes involving Grice's professional associations -- or rather Grice's involvement with professional societies.
"Entail" is a use particular to G. E. Moore. Grice prefers 'implicate.'
Russell and Whitehead (or Whitehead and Russell) use a special symbol for 'entail'. Levinson uses "+>" for 'implicates,' to oppose to '... entails...'.
In "Presupposition and Conversational Implicature," Grice aptly notes that "The king of France is bald" entails there is a king of France; "The king of France isn't bald" merely implicates it!

Conferences
"The Unity of Science and Teleology"
The idea of the unity of science (or unified science) was one Grice disliked. The point here is that teleology poses a problem to such a unity, since mechanism is one of the monsters pilgrim Grice encounters on his way to the City of Eternal Truth! (As R. B. Jones would agree!)

KEYWORD: analytic-synthetic distinction.
*********************************************************************
Carton 6, Folder 15.
Aristotle and "Categories"
Work with P. F. Strawson at Oxford.
Aristotle's categories were 10; Grice and Strawson found them six too many and preferred Kant's reduction to 4 (which later became the four conversational categories of 'qualitas,' 'quantitas,' 'relatio,' and 'modus').
*********************************************************************
"Aristotle and Friendship"
Note the distinction with "Aristotle ON friendship."
"Trust" is used by G. J. Warnock, alla Grice, in "The object of morality." It was the topic of Grice's earlier "Logic and conversation" lectures on implicature, where he refers to the clash between conversational self-interest and conversational benevolence.
Note that this is NOT Aristotle on x, y, and z. But Aristotle AND x, y, and z!

This was repr. in the Proceedings of the Aristotelian Society. Warnock included the symposium (with A. R. White) in his "Philosophy of Perception" Oxford Reader. Most find White's response boring, but Grice didn't (he never read it!)
KEYWORD: perception
KEYWORD: causal theory
KEYWORD: cause
*********************************************************************
"Categories"
With P. F. Strawson at Oxford. Discussion. Some linguistic botanising on things like, 'Where is Banbury's generosity?'
Grice refers to this work in his "Reply to Richards" and complains (slightly) that Strawson failed to recognise him (Grice) in "Subject and predicate in logic and grammar" and most unnotably, in "Individuals: an essay in descriptive metaphysics."
*********************************************************************
"Categorical Imperatives"
Note the plural! For Kant, there is only ONE -- 'the one and only.'
*********************************************************************
"The Logical Construction Theory of Personal Identity"
To be reprinted in Grice, "Philosophical Papers," Clarendon Press.
A revision of his "Mind" 1941 essay on "Personal Identity". The idea of 'logical construction' comes from the author discussed by Grice in that essay: Broad.
*********************************************************************
Davidson's "On Saying That"
Cfr. Grice/Staal on the 'that'-clause. Originally a demonstrative, it can be dropped, but never by Grice!

McGinn has called Grice's model, like Descartes's, a 'telementational' one!
Grice never cited Descartes in French!
*********************************************************************
"Grice on Denials of Indicative Conditionals"
"Dispositions and Intentions"
A very important essay.
It contains some corrections by some of Grice's Oxford colleagues. It is a rare discussion by Grice of Ryle --. A knowledge of Ryle and his influence at Oxford is obvious in "Method in philosophical psychology." Ryle is a 'behaviourist.' Grice is also thinking of Hampshire whose "Thought and action," was pretty influential at Oxford -- and which Grice preferred to Anscombe's more popular pamphlet on intention!
*********************************************************************
"Two Dogmas of Empiricism"
repr. in WoW, Way of Words.
A revision of "In defence of a dogma," with P. F. Strawson. Actually the dogmas are two!
This was Strawson's and Grice's way to honour Quine at Oxford -- by providing a counterexample to Quine's most infamous essay against Carnap! (R. B. Jones should agree!)
*********************************************************************
"Emotions and Incontinence"
"Incontinentia" is Latinese for the more proper "akrasia."
KEYWORD: emotion
KEYWORD: icontinence

*********************************************************************
"Entailment and Paradoxes"
Grice finds that the paradoxes of entailment are best seen as disimplicatures "on context"!

A. D. Code and Grice worked on Aristotle's izzing and hazzing.
*********************************************************************
Grice was sceptical about the type-token distinction (vide WoW, Retrospective Epilogue).
*********************************************************************
"Frege, Words and Sentences"
One rare example of Grice dwelling on an author he did not particularly like! But cfr. Neale et al. on Frege on 'colour' and Grice's idea of 'conventional' implicature.
In "Prejudices and predilections, which become the life and opinions of Paul Grice," Grice refers to a "Fregeian sense" but was unsure what this was!
Jason Stanley should have a look at this! (And learn?).

*********************************************************************
Grice knew all you needed to know about the Nicomachean ethics, since his tutor at Oxford had been Hardie! (He regretted he had to teach it in English, not Greek, at Berkeley!)

Grice is serious about 'teleology.' He considers 'finality' a crucial philosophical problem. And in the acronym used by Richards, PGRICE, the "E" stands for 'end' -- as in "Howard's End" ("Rude, that," as Rita says in "Educating Rita").

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A rather pretentious title -- very Grice!
But basically, Grice being a coherentist philosopher, wants to find a metaphysical niche for value, and relate it to morality broadly. The idea of the absolute, while Hegelian in spirit, is Griceian in implicature!
Grice was interested in the relative/absolute disitinction after reading the rather light booklet by J. L. Mackie whom he had met at Oxford.

Historical: Vide: "Kantotle."
Grice on 'problems': "if philosophy generated no new problems it would be dead."
When Grice refers to a value system and a value sub-system, he is taking 'system' seriously!
Since these occupies THREE folders, it's best to consider Folder 25 containing the miscellanea; the Folder 26 containing the essay on value sub-system, and Folder 27 containing Grice's view on Kant's big problem (if he had one).

KEYWORD: rationalism
Grice on the challenge of irrationalist (his discussion of Mackie, a philosopher Grice did not particularly like!)
Grice is proposing a response to the irrationalism re: values defended inter alii by H. Putnam and J. L. Mackie. Oddly, Putnam quotes from Grice and Baker in his reflections on this.
Grice rejects Foot's idea of a 'virtue,' but he is interested in what ways a virtue meta-theoretical framework can fit his avowed rationalism.

Foot ends up as a footnote in "Conception of Value." Great philosopher. Taught at Somerville!
Grice was NOT a 'virtue' moralist. He rejects Foot's distinctions between a virtue and a vice. But Grice's favourite motto (or one of his favourite ones) was, "Philosophy, like virtue, is entire." Unfortunately, by the same token, vice is also entire? (Is that Grice's implicature?)
Note that the fact that this essay by Grice on 'virtues' is here catalogued as it is because David Farrell and others organised Grice's stuff alphabetically.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
While Grice uses "W" as a psychological predicate in "Vacuous Names," he would distinguish between 'wanting' and 'intending.' "Needing" is a different animal!
Grice is into a philosophical conceptual analysis of "A wants that p," and "A needs that p." He finds them akin to the 'boulemaic' operators that he opposes to the 'alethic' or 'doxastic' operators.
It is best to consider Folder 30 containing Grice's notes on 'wanting.'
Folder 31, on the other hand, contains Grice's notes on 'needing.'
It should be realised that David Farrell and other members of the Bancroft organised the Grice notes 'alphabetically,' so it's no surprise Grice's reflections on 'wanting' is the last item in the last folder in the last carton in the last series!
Enjoy!

A very English philosopher. Almost as English as J. O. Urmson (both were from Yorkshire). Grice found Warnock exquisite and vice versa. Warnock nicely reminisces the occasion when Grice uttered, slighlty out of the blue, 'How clever language is!' It wasn't clear to Warnock if Grice meant Latin, Greek, or English!

APPENDIX: Notes on the publications and unpublications by H. P. Grice.
How we proceed to compose a catalogue raisonné? More specifically: What would a catalogue raisonné of "Griceiana" look like?
That is a rather tricky question, and a Griceian one at that, not without its disimplicatures!
I propose a few hints: A catalogue raisonné should include Grice's oeuvre, of course, both his publications and his unpublications.
But a catalogue raisonné should also include a secondary bibliography, as it were -- notably oeuvre by his Oxonian colleagues -- not to mention (then why do you?) those authors -- especially Oxonian philosophers -- cited by Grice himself -- or his self, as he'd prefer.
And essays by Speranza are all ways welcomed!
A catalogue raisonné of H. P. Grice should at least then include: (a) the list of his publications, and (b) the list of his 'unpublications' (which "by far surpass in number" (a)), he would often joke.
Some of his unpublications have been catalogued under six series -- expanded below.
But surely the Grice Papers at Bancroft is NOT the compleat thing!
(As an example, there is "Definite descriptions in Russell and in the vernacular," which has not been deposited as an 'unpublication' in the Grice Papers at Bancroft -- that I prefer to refer to as The K. W. Grice Collection, since it was K. W. Grice's idea to donate the stuff to the Bancroft! So let us begin with his 'perfectionist' publications!

(A2) THE PUBLICATIONS BY H. P. GRICE -- forthcoming!
*********************************************************************
The forthcoming publications by Grice should include at least two volumes.
(i) Grice, "Philosophical Papers", Clarendon. Including: "Personal Identity" (1941), "Vacuous Names" (1969), "Intention and Uncertainty" (1971), "Actions and Events" (1988), "Aristotle on the multiplicity of being" (1988), "Intentions and dispositions" (1950), "Probability, Desirability, and Mode Operators" (1973), and a few other items.
(ii) Grice, "Philosophical Papers: The Collaborations" -- work with J. Baker, "Davidson on weakness of the will" (1985), work with A. D. Code, J. F. Thomson, P. F. Strawson, D. F. Pears, J. F. Staal, and notably G. J. Warnock.

Regarding (A1), some secondary bibliography should be appended just after the item by Grice. This should be viewed broadly so as to include references to, say, Urmson (and his principles of conversation), Nowell-Smith (and his principles of conversation), O. P. Wood, and the Oxonian work on 'pragmatic implication,' inter alia.

This item became popular after the Perry reprint. But surely a catalogue raisonné should include AUTHORS CITED BY GRICE in the item, and MOST AUTHORS who have referred to the item -- notably in Oxford.
It is interesting that, while credited as Grice's first 'publication,' it isn't really. Witters is right that even an 'unpublication' should count as a 'publication,' and it is Grice's essay on "Negation" (1938), composed while in Harborne, that should count as his first _philosophical_ piece of work, as they say!
The authors cited by Grice in "Personal Identity" are many. His goal is simple enough: to provide an analysis (or 'logical construction,' as he'll later say) of "I" in terms of mnemonic states.

Grice, H. P. (1948). Meaning. Repr. in WoW
********************************************************************
I just LOVE to write "1948," since you'll find most philosophers citing this as Grice (1957)!
But Grice explicitly wrote "1948" when Harvard invited him to include further items than the William James lectures to the WoW (Way of Words) compilation.
It is difficult to trace who quoted Grice 1948 first. I like to quote from H. L. A. Hart who refers to Grice 1948 in his Holloway review, i.e. his review of Holloway, "Language and Intelligence."
But most importantly should be P. F. Strawson, Grice's tuttee. Strawson deviced a type of counter-example that Grice took very seriously. Notably, Strawson found Grice's 'analysis' incomplete -- and the rest is history!
The goal of Grice is clear enough: to provide an analysis in terms of necessary and sufficient conditions of phrases such as "By uttering x, U means that p." He'll later recognise he failed -- hence his refinement in "Utterer's meaning and intentions," where the final analysis occupies a whole page in the "Philosophical Review" reprint!

Strawson once swore that he would never reprint this in any of his various collections! And he kept the promise. (I am less happy with Strawson's reprinting his "If and The Horse-Shoe," which appeared in the PGRICE festschrift -- what is the good of a festschrift if you are going to go and publish the contribution elsewhere?)
The thing by Grice and Strawson cannot be understood without misreading Quine, "Two dogmas of empiricism." Of course. But while that sounds like American, rather than Oxonian philosophy, one should recall that Quine was visiting the Dreaming Spires at the time!
Quine had occasion to discuss Grice's and Strawson's proposal in "Word and object." Oddly, when Grice was invited to contribute to "Words and objections," he chose an altogether different topic: vacuous names!

This is of course Grice 1948. When published by The Philosophical Review, after Anne Strawson typed it, and P. F. Strawson sent it to the journal, it became an American thing almost.
B. J. Harrison once said that Grice's "Meaning" recevied "almost as many counter-examples as rule-utilitarianism!"

This is a complex piece, and Pears's idea -- he was after all, going to London, for the Third Programme thing. It is not clear what part was written by Grice, which by Strawson, and which by Pears -- but who cares? It is a fascinating thing altogether, citing Collingwood!
What I like best about this publication is that it is NOT included in Grandy/Warner's list of "The publications of H. P. Grice" in Grice's festschrift!
But it IS cited in the "Metaphysics" entry in Edwards' encyclopaedic encyclopaedia!

Grice, H. P. (1961). The Causal Theory of Perception. Proceedings of the Aristotelian Society. A symposium with A. R. White, repr. in G. J. Warnock, The philosophy of perception. Oxford readings in philosophy.
*********************************************************************
It is easy to forget (a) that this was a symposium with A. R. White, and that Grice unfortunately thought that to include the 'excursus' on 'implication' in WoW would be redundant!
It is best to see this as part of the "Warnock retrospective," as Grice called it. It was, of course, the Grice/Warnock retrospective -- since Grice was Warnock's senior. There are loads of stuff on perception at the Bancroft.
The "Causal Theory" is rather dry by comparison. Historians mostly refer to it as an early advancement of the theory of implicature:
(i) The pillar box seems red to me; but then it would, since it IS red.
Grice fights with the idea that
(ii) The pillar box seems red to me.
and
(iii) The pillar box is red.
neither entail each other! But that's neither here nor there (An entailment-based account of strength or informative seems therefore out of order!)
While Grice was credited by Strawson in an earlier work as being concerned with the implicatures of 'some' and 'all' (footnote to "Introduction to Logical Theory"), Grice has said that his original attempt to distinguish between 'logical' and 'pragmatic' inferences (broadly construed) was motivated by his criticism of some neo-Wittgensteinians (he is having G. A. Paul in mind) who were playing with the dangerous idea of a sense-datum!

Grice at possibly his driest! But surely this is important when it comes to KEYWORD: Martian. For Grice introduces the four-eyed Martians. How Butler came to invite Grice to reprint this -- a venture springing from Grice's work on perceiving with Warnock -- escapes most!
There is a footnote in the Butler edition crediting conversations with O. P. Wood, later eliminated in the WoW reprint. Wood belonged to Ryle's group, not Austin's!

*********************************************************************
It is good of Grice to think of this as a piece that can be read independently. It concerns his programme, from utterer to expression. My favourite is the shaggy-dog story where he is concerned with the logical form of "The A is B" utterances. "The dog is shaggy." What does it mean to 'refer' to the dog? What does it mean to attribute shagginess or hairy-coatedness to the thing?
Grice, H. P. (1967). Utterer's meaning and intentions. The Philosophical Review. Being the fifth William James lecture, repr. in WoW.
*********************************************************************
Grice rightly thought that this thing could stand independently. It is merely his response to Strawson's counterexaple (or 'alleged counterexample,' as Grice would have it) in The Philosophical Review (the 'infested by rats' example) -- but also by Urmson, and many others, notably American philosophers then studying at Oxford: Searle, Schiffer, Stampe, Patton, etc.

*********************************************************************
One wonders what Grice was thinking at the time. Quine soon dismissed the piece as irrelevant -- "a mere scope device should keep Grice silent!" But to Griceians, it is the best example of Grice playing with System G (or what Myro would later call System G). Following Mates's infamous "Logic," it allows Grice to show his inexpertise in logic, with a brilliance! And his System G has a syntax, a semantics, and why not, a pragmatics.
It is not curious that the ending section on definite descriptors (the identificatory versus non-identificatory uses, that Grice says arrived at independently from Donnellan) has been reprinted.

*********************************************************************
Why Grice chose THIS subject for the British Academy, Gilbert Harman suggests, may well be that Hart and Hampshire had been written on intention and certainty for "Mind". My take is that Grice was an irreverent revisionist, and although he plays with Kenny and Anscombe, he ends up endorsing the outdated view by the very Oxonian Prichard!

It was about time, by 1974, that Grice should make clear what he meant by the operator "psi" that he had relied on in his work on implicacture. He couldn't be more bizarre! He introduces the pirots, and indeed the whole discipline of pirotology! And he comes out as a 'functionalist', with a small 'f'.
It is no wonder that this essay is a favourite of the American philosopher Ned Block!

Most philosophers were quoting this as Grice (1967) as they should. My favourite debate is by L. J. Cohen and R. C. S. Walker -- So Oxford! R. M. Hare refers to this in his "Practical Inferences" as does D. F. Pears in The Canadian Journal of Philosophy ("Ifs and Cans"). So it was a very Oxford thing, arising from Grice's reading Strawson's Introduction to Logical Theory, and criticising Strawson for his account of 'if'. The irony is that Strawson recognises in that essay that all he learned about logic was from Grice!
(Grice is quoted twice: in Strawson's prologue and in a footnote where the implicature approach is 'implicated').

This is a programmatic piece. It becomes crucial when dealing with the development of Grice's views, since, inter alia, he applies the razor of parsimony to the 'alleged senses' of "mean" in "Meaning" ('natural' and, er, 'non-natural').

*********************************************************************
This was almost commissioned, if you could do such a thing to Grice, by Grandy and Warner. Since both Grandy's and Warner's Christian (or first) names are Richard, Grice relabelled the thing, "Repy to Richards." His implicature is: What is Grandy's? What is Warner's? (A double question that one can pose to Grice's and Strawson's "In defence of a dogma," though!)

This was edited by B. F. Loar, and it is due mainly to Grice's joint work with Aristotelian specialist ("Philosophy like virtue is entire") Alan D. Code, and it concerns two delightful Griceianisms: izzing and hazzing.
It concerns issues of 'implicature' (or 'contextual ambiguity') and it can be considered Oxonian in that it deals with G. E. L. Owens's The Snares of Ontology. Owens is Grice's senior by far, and as Owens wrote in his obituary of Gilbert Ryle for the Aristotelian Society, Owens belonged to another group than Grice's -- "even if Grice's followers are more reverential than Ryle's!")

It is slightly sad, but I guess he did not care, that Grice died in August 1988, while the book was published in 1989. So it _is_ posthumous, in a way (even if Grice was cremated).

THE "UNPUBLICATIONS" OF H. P. GRICE
The title 'unpublication' should be self-explanatory. It is a common practice among philosophers to have stuff followed by the abbreviation (w.i.p., work in progress), or "unpubl.". If x is "unpubl.," it means it is unpublished. If if it is unpublished, once can follow Mary Poppins and say it constitutes an 'unpublication.'

Biro in fact wrote a response to Suppes's response!
Suppes, contra Chomsky, rightly deems Grice an 'intentionalist,' never a 'behaviourist,' as Chomsky wants him in the John Locke lectures on "Reflections on language."

"Series II"
The so-called (by the Bancroftians and the Griceians alike) "Grice's Series II" consists of publications by H. P. Grice.
These publications range from 1957 to 1989.
*******************************************************************************
They include: Carton 1, from Folder 16 to Folder 31, and Carton 2 to Carton 4.
*********************************************************************
Grice's publications are, oddly, arranged chronologically rather than alphabetically!
The publications are arranged alphabetically, though, for those publications without dates! (We *had* to arrange them -- some_how_!)
Series II (so-called) includes:
Grice's published 'papers,' or "publicactions," as he preferred (to oppose them to his 'unpublications,' of which he was so proud -- "I'm such a perfectionist!").
Drafts and notes by Grice that accompany their publications.
Upublished papers along with their drafts and/or notes, and
Published transcripts of his various lectures (the William James, Urbana, Carus, John Locke lectures).
Also included in Series II is Grice's own volume "Studies in the Way of Words" (1989) which is compilation of all his other published works including, "Meaning," "Utterer's Meaning," and "Logic and Conversation."

-- repr. in WoW (Way of Words)
Published in "The Philosophical Review" -- but actually written by Grice in 1948 (as stated in WoW -- Way of Words). The paper was first presented at the Oxford Philosophical Society. It influenced H. L. A. Hart in his review of Holloway for the Philosophical Quarterly. It can be seen as a development of Grice's seminars of Peirce's krypto-technicisms on 'semeiotic.'

NOT REPRINTED. Vide, Grice, forthcoming.
Note the spelling "botanising," rather than 'botanizing.'
Grice said he owed the method of linguistic botany (as he otherwise preferred) to J. L. Austin, his senior at Oxford, and leader of the "Play Group." Austin (vide, Speranza, and Hampshire, unpublication) in fact led TWO Play Groups at Oxford. Grice never attended the _first_ play group, having been 'born on the wrong side of the tracks,' as he would later reminisce!

KEYWORD: DESCARTES. The Descartes Society of Oxford should do something about this. Pity there is no Descartes Society at Oxford!

-- repr. in WoW, Way of Words -- as Part I. Part II Grice pretentiously called, "Essays on Semantics and Metaphysics."
The lectures were actually given in the spring term of 1967. Grice was giving seminars at Oxford on "Logic and Conversation" -- and using 'implicature'! -- at an earlier date. For Harvard, he compiled a 'grand programme' which 'echoed Kant' -- hence his jocular use of terms like 'conversational category' (there are four of them!), and 'conversational maxim.' The idea that the maxims follow from a general 'imperative' is Kantian in nature too ("I am enough of a rationalist to call myself a Kantian!")

This item was written by Grice -- with the collaboration of G. Myro -- for a festschrift for W. V. O. Quine (one of Grice's two 'mentors' -- the other being Chomsky).
Grice creates a System Q -- Myro will later re-name this system System G -- or System G-hp (a highly plausible, or hopefully powerful) version of Grice's system Q -- "in gratitude" to Grice.

At Stanford, Grice learned to realise that his 'mood' wasn't a 'mood' (Moravcsik). Grice would later refer to his things as 'modes'!

Davidson loved this reply and refers to it in his own publications. It concerns the idea as to whether the analysis of '... intends...' requires a clause specifying what the intentional agent 'believes.'
Grice notes that Davidson's proposal that it does, based on Grice's idea of 'implicature,' seems "too social" to be true!
The thing is discussed by D. F. Pears in his fascinating "Motivated Irrationality." D. F. Pears loved Grice, and his love was mutual!

Grice would prefer 'a-krasia' (He held a Lit. Hum., i.e. classics, rather than any degree in philosophy proper!)
One 'chapter' would become Grice's and Baker's tribute to Davidson, for whom 'akrasia' is (conceptually) impossible! (Davidson is working on probability calculus).

This is quoted differently by Bealer. Grice entitled one version as "Definite descriptions in Russell and in the vernacular." It is also cited by authors working on the negation of definite descriptions.
Grice adds a 'manner' maxim to deal with stuff. He also, more importantly, introduces the square-bracket device for 'common ground' assignment, that has been usefully applied by Harnish in his influential essay on 'Implicature and logical form.'

This is one of Grice's 'historical' essays. Kantotle was his favourite author, so no wonder!

From 1986 to 1989.
The phrase, 'way of words,' is Lockean in nature. "Studies" is not! As Yolton shows, Locke distinguishes three ways:
-- the way of things
-- the way of ideas
-- the way of words
The way of words is the most superficial, hence its appeal to Grice!

Cfr. Speranza on Grice on negation
This is the first essay by Grice ever -- it bears his Harborne address! (Although it was written with a view to his Corpus Christi courses).
A discussion of Bradley, using variables like "The A is not B." "Negation and Privation" should be a better title.
Possibly Grice's first publication. So The Bancroft Library is being slightly vague when they state the material ranges from 1941.
This is vintage 1930s -- 'the swinging thirties'. Note that a label for an audio-tape also reads, "Oxford philosophy in the 1930s and 1940s."
Grice felt very much part of the younger generation that got his education at Oxford in the 1930s -- fresh from Clifton, as he was! ("A Midlands scholarship boy," destined to 'The House,' aka Corpus).

Cfr. Speranza on Grice on negation
A view of 'not' as 'uniguous.'
One of the few unpublications cited by Grandy/Warner, PGRICE. A good antecedent for Grice's treatment of the logical operators as a response to Strawson's hasty treatment in "Introduction to logical theory."
Grandy/Warner have this as "Lectures on negation." Does it matter? It does. If it is meant as a 'lecture' (as opposed to "Negation I"), Grice tended towards the patronising side, and towards the jocular side, too. Like a music-hall artist, he had a knack for timing and relied on his addressee's laughter and stuff.

This was repr. in Mind 1941 (pre-war!), and later (oh so much later) by Perry in his University of California Press compilation on "Personal Identiy." It is a Lockean defense of "I" (or personal pronouns generally) in terms of 'mnemonic states.'

Kant, along with Aristotle ("Kantotle"), was one of Grice's favourite philosophers.
Grice would read Kant in English. When giving the William James lectures, Grice 'echoes' Kant by inventing the four conversational categories (qualitas, quantitas, relatio, modus), and the conversational maxims. In "Method in philosophical psychology" he invents the conversational immanuel that every rational pirot should follow! (vide Speranza, "The Conversational Immanuel.")

With Kant, Aristotle was one of Grice's favourite philosophers ("Kantotle").
Grice sadly realised that, unlike Oxford, at Berkeley, he could not just teach Grice, but he had to give his students a bit of "Kantotle" to "boot"!

"Entail" is a use particular to G. E. Moore. Grice prefers 'implicate.'
Russell and Whitehead (or Whitehead and Russell) use a special symbol for 'entail'. Levinson uses "+>" for 'implicates,' to oppose to '... entails...'.
In "Presupposition and Conversational Implicature," Grice aptly notes that "The king of France is bald" entails there is a king of France; "The king of France isn't bald" merely implicates it!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The idea of the unity of science (or unified science) was one Grice disliked. The point here is that teleology poses a problem to such a unity, since mechanism is one of the monsters pilgrim Grice encounters on his way to the City of Eternal Truth! (As R. B. Jones would agree!)

Work with P. F. Strawson at Oxford.
Aristotle's categories were 10; Grice and Strawson found them six too many and preferred Kant's reduction to 4 (which later became the four conversational categories of 'qualitas,' 'quantitas,' 'relatio,' and 'modus').

A very important essay.
To be reprinted in Grice, "Philosophical Papers, Volume I" (Clarendon)
It contains some corrections by some of Grice's Oxford colleagues. It is a rare discussion by Grice of Ryle --. A knowledge of Ryle and his influence at Oxford is obvious in "Method in philosophical psychology." Ryle is a 'behaviourist.' Grice is also thinking of Hampshire whose "Thought and action," was pretty influential at Oxford -- and which Grice preferred to Anscombe's more popular pamphlet on intention!

Grice, H. P. (1975). 'Hume,' The H. P. Grice Papers, BANC MSS 90/135c, The Bancroft Library, The University of California, Berkeley.
It relates Hume's quandary on personal identity. Discussed by Haugeland.
Oddly, unlike Grice, Hume was a Scot, and his surname originally spelt "Home." A grice is a sort of Scots pig, but Grice preferred to think his surname was Anglo-Norman and meant grey, or gray! (as it does)

A VERY GOOD thing about this is that it is dated 1987. Grice died in August 1988, so this is one of his latest rendering of his thoughts in print. Friedman helped!

Grice is serious about 'teleology.' He considers 'finality' a crucial philosophical problem. And in the acronym used by Richards, PGRICE, the "E" stands for 'end' -- as in "Howard's End" ("Rude, that," as Rita says in "Educating Rita").
The keyword is 'teoleology.' Grice sees Mechanism as one of the monsters on his way to the City of Eternal Truth!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A rather pretentious title -- very Grice!
But basically, Grice being a coherentist philosopher, wants to find a metaphysical niche for value, and relate it to morality broadly. The idea of the absolute, while Hegelian in spirit, is Griceian in implicature!
Grice was interested in the relative/absolute disitinction after reading the rather light booklet by J. L. Mackie whom he had met at Oxford.

KEYWORD: Kant
Historical: Vide: "Kantotle."
Grice on 'problems': "if philosophy generated no new problems it would be dead."
When Grice refers to a value system and a value sub-system, he is taking 'system' seriously!
Since these occupies THREE folders, it's best to consider Folder 25 containing the miscellanea; the Folder 26 containing the essay on value sub-system, and Folder 27 containing Grice's view on Kant's big problem (if he had one).

KEYWORD: value
KEYWORD: rationalism
Grice on the challenge of irrationalist (his discussion of Mackie, a philosopher Grice did not particularly like!)
Grice is proposing a response to the irrationalism re: values defended inter alii by H. Putnam and J. L. Mackie. Oddly, Putnam quotes from Grice and Baker in his reflections on this.
Grice rejects Foot's idea of a 'virtue,' but he is interested in what ways a virtue meta-theoretical framework can fit his avowed rationalism.

VIRTUES AND VICES

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Foot ends up as a footnote in "Conception of Value." Great philosopher. Taught at Somerville!
Grice was NOT a 'virtue' moralist. He rejects Foot's distinctions between a virtue and a vice. But Grice's favourite motto (or one of his favourite ones) was, "Philosophy, like virtue, is entire." Unfortunately, by the same token, vice is also entire? (Is that Grice's implicature?)
Note that the fact that this essay by Grice on 'virtues' is here catalogued as it is because David Farrell and others organised Grice's stuff alphabetically.
*********************************************************************
WANTS AND NEEDS
*********************************************************************************
Grice, H. P. "Wants and Needs" -- Series V -- Carton 9, Folders 30 and 31. The notes range from 1974 to 1975.
Preferred quotation:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
While Grice uses "W" as a psychological predicate in "Vacuous Names," he would distinguish between 'wanting' and 'intending.' "Needing" is a different animal!
Grice is into a philosophical conceptual analysis of "A wants that p," and "A needs that p." He finds them akin to the 'boulemaic' operators that he opposes to the 'alethic' or 'doxastic' operators.
It is best to consider Folder 30 containing Grice's notes on 'wanting.'
Folder 31, on the other hand, contains Grice's notes on 'needing.'
It should be realised that David Farrell and other members of the Bancroft organised the Grice notes 'alphabetically,' so it's no surprise Grice's reflections on 'wanting' is the last item in the last folder in the last carton in the last series!
Enjoy!
