Aristotle, Carnap, Grice

R. B. JONES, THIS BLOG, notes:

"I've not come across any reference to Aristotle in Carnaps writings.
If you Google for "Aristotle Carnap", one of my long forgotten abortive starts comes up, a page I started when thinking of Grice and Carnap.

It was intended to be "a presentation of a conception of metaphysics written as if to explain to Carnap why some useful purpose might be served by looking at Aristotle's Metaphysics", but I wrote down an action plan and never actually completed (or even started) any of the actions.

That's interesting!

At least we know that Grice quoted BOTH Aristotle AND Carnap.

Aristotle would have loved Carnap's "pirots," too!
