Back to English!

From Janseen's note as per previous blog post:

"In Grundlagen (1884) Frege discusses: M. Cantor (1855) [7], H. Grassmann
(1860)[22], H. Hankel (1867) ([24] and [25]), G. K¨opp (1867) [37], J. J. Baumann
(1868) [2], E. Kossak (1872) [38], O. Hesse (1872) [28], E. Schr¨oder(1873) [51],
J.S. Mill (1877) [41] - Frege used this German translation, the original is from
1843 [40] -, Lipschitz (1877) [39], W.S. Jevons (1879) [36] - Frege used this 3rd
edition, original is from 1873 -, J. Thomae (1880) [55], O. Schloemilch (1881)
[50], and G. Cantor(1883) [6]. Furthermore Frege discusses several authors
from the 17th and 18th century: Descartes, Hobbes, Leibniz, Kant, Locke,
Hume, Berkeley. For them he used a collection from 1868 [2], and the collected
writings of Kant and Leibniz."

It is good that Grice had all the discussion of such English authors such as Mill, Jevons, Hobbes, and Locke -- back in English!

I love Jevons. I think he was certainly a palaeo-Gricean.

And Mill, of course, I never tire of bringing more Grice to the Mill.

Hobbes is the first Gricean, as Hacking shows in "Why does language matter to philosophy"

And Bennett has wonderfully demonstrated how much of the intention-based semantics is present in Locke. For Locke it's not just that you have an idea which you signify via a word. You have to have at least intentions about that. (Bennett, book on "Locke").

Etc.
