But I ha...OK, the commentary is a long time coming!<br />But I have been provoked again, this time into looking closer into Logical Atomism than I have previously, with particular regard to its relation with Grice's philosophy.<br /><br />The atomist/corpuscularist angle I couldn't make much sense of, and the methodological side of Logical Atomism seems to me too far removed from Grice's methods to make a good story, but I think there may be an interesting story on the ontological matters, particularly, though not exclusively, in relation to Grice's views as presented in his Vacuous Names, which one might think closer to Russell's brief Meinongian phase than the ontology of logical atomism.<br /><br />Anyway, I'm working my way through this, re-reading Urmson's book "philosophical analysis", failing again to make sense of Hylton, and discovering belatedly Michael Beaney's SEP article tracing the history of philosophical analysis.<br /><br />I wish I could say that this will end in a nice contribution for the Grice Club, but my track record is so bad that the best I can say is that that's the direction I am heading in right now.<br /><br />Roger<br />Roger Bishop Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05737621401913015777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6897073925772128260.post-50836179701260417162015-09-22T09:09:26.054-07:002015-09-22T09:09:26.054-07:00Bravo Speranza!
