Frege and Propositional Unity
British Journal for the History of Philosophy. 2017. Vol. 25. No. 4. P. 750–771.
Bronzo S.
This paper identifies a tension in Frege’s philosophy and offers a diagnosis of its origins.Frege’s Context Principle can be used to dissolve the problem of propositional unity. However, Frege’s official response to the problem does not invoke the Context Principle, but the distinction between “saturated” and “unsaturated” propositional constituents. I argue that such a response involves assumptions that clash with the Context Principle. I suggest, however, that this tension is not generated by deep-seated philosophical commitments, but by Frege’s occasional attempt to take a dubious shortcut in the justification of his conception of propositional structure.

Clarity of knowledge and reasoning is necessary in many cases. Yet vagueness in scientific thinking related to surprise, curiosity, "ability to engage with not-knowing" (de Freitas) and abductive reasoning is also a crucially important source of scientific creativity which supplements combinatorial logic when dealing with the already known. Starting from studies by C. S. Peirce ...

Assessment item development requires careful control of construct alignment, response structure, difficulty, language, and review evidence. Large language models can accelerate item drafting, but ad hoc prompting is difficult to audit or reproduce. AIGRA is an R package for structured, agentic item generation, review, and analysis. It supports tabular item-bank templates, Python-backed generation workflows, direct ...

By happiness, we mean the intensity of emotions people experience while comparing their new income with its expected value, or the target income with its original value. In the first case, ...

Works of Twardowski in the early XX century contain an outline of general semantic framework for natural languages. This framework, proposed within Twardowski’s theory of actions and ‘products’, provides a drastic alternative to Frege’s semantic framework based on the notion of proposition (Gedanke in Frege). The latter has to a great extent shaped the following development ...

Grammatical error correction is one of the fundamental tasks in Natural Language Processing. For the Russian language, most of the spellcheckers available correct typos and other simple errors with high accuracy, but often fail when faced with non-native (L2) writing, since the latter contains errors that are not typical for native speakers. In this paper, ...

Атомизм и холизм рассматриваются как два противоположных по смыслу, но дополняющих друг друга подхода в современной теории сложных самоорганизующихся систем, называемой также теорией сложности. Атомизм связан с рассмотрением вложенности сложных структур мира, их фрактальной организации, где мы можем доходить до элементарных, далее неделимых структурных фрагментов, на базе которых вырастают сложные масштабно инвариантные, самоподобные пространственно-временные структуры. ...

Notions of validity and efficacy of law have long been in the spotlight of jurisprudence, but the discussion on the respective issues is of a circular nature.

It is almost universally accepted that the Frege-Geach Point is necessary for explaining the inferential relations and compositional structure of truth-functionally complex propositions. I argue that this claim rests on a disputable view of propositional structure, which models truth-functionally complex propositions on atomic propositions. I propose an alternative view of propositional structure, based on a ...

Frege appears to hold both (a) that thoughts are internally articulated, in a way that mirrors the semantic articulation of the sentences that express them, and (b) that the same thought can be analyzed in different ways, none of which has to be more fundamental than the others. Commentators have often taken these theses to ...

This paper argues that the conception of language articulated in Wittgenstein's Tractatus can be helpfully interpreted in light of two important themes in the philosophy of Stanley Cavell: 1) The idea that language requires our own personal contribution, and 2) the idea that the impulse to elaborate philosophical theories, whether skeptical or foundationalist, is partially motivated ...

The main claim of this paper is one that many readers will find surprising, namely that some central aspects of the Tractatus’ conception of language can be illuminated with the help of the philosophy of Stanley Cavell. One reason such a claim will seem surprising is that the Tractatus as standardly read is advancing an ...
