Grice: Balanced Sentences and Balanced Forms

Speranza

Grice was fascinated by the phrase, "logical form", and he found that a sentence, as Lord Russell said, more or less reflects pretty transparently its own logical form. In other words, syntax is a fairly good guide to logical form.

When it came to 'connectives', Grice did discuss the Sheffer stroke, but he found it not too balanced!
