Book Synopsis The Metaphysics of Logical Positivism by : Gustav Bergmann
Download or read book The Metaphysics of Logical Positivism written by Gustav Bergmann and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1978-05-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teachers are urged to integrate grammar instruction with lessons on writer's craft, but what does that look like in real classrooms with real kids? In The Craft of Grammar, Jeff Anderson shows how he brings grammar and craft together meaningfully for student writers. Jeff and his sixth-grade students move easily from analyzing sentences to freewrites in writer's notebooks to "express-lane edits" of their writing in daily workshops. The lessons, individual conferences, and small-group activities on the video demonstrate how to use high-quality children's and young adult literature as mentor texts and as an alternative to "Daily Oral Language." This sixty-minute DVD includes examples of: developing whole-class lessons focused on short mentor text; linking the writer's notebook to grammar instruction; assisting students in individual conferences as they test new writing strategies and analyze text; scaffolding learning through guided practice and small-group work; creating mnemonic devices to help students retain key rules; celebrating student success and tactfully correcting errors. Jeff presents simple and imaginative tools and memory devices—from the whoop of the AAAWWUBIS to the clever and catchy FANBOYS—that help students see the value of grammar and mechanics in crafting powerful writing and retain that knowledge. Filmed in his diverse, Title I classroom in San Antonio, Texas, and featuring Jeff's unique brand of energy, passion, and self-deprecating humor, The Craft of Grammar helps teachers of intermediate and adolescent writers find new and engaging ways to connect the writing process with grammar and mechanics.
Book Synopsis Ontology and Analysis by : Laird Addis
Download or read book Ontology and Analysis written by Laird Addis and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2013-05-02 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gustav Bergmann (1906-1987) was, arguably, the greatest ontologist of the twentieth century in pursuing the fundamental questions of first philosophy as deeply as any philosopher of any time. In 2006 and 2007, international conferences devoted solely to Bergmann’s work were held at the University of Iowa in the USA, Université de Provence in France, and Università degli Studi Roma Tre in Italy. The papers in this volume were presented at the first of these conferences, in Iowa City, where Bergmann taught for nearly four decades after escaping from Europe, following the dissolution of the Vienna Circle of which he had been the youngest member. There are nine philosophical papers, reminiscences of three of his students, and a complete bibliography of his published writings.
Download or read book Gustav Bergmann written by Bruno Langlet and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2013-05-02 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The texts of the book are concerned with G. Bergmann's open and new problems and their active role on issues in contemporary metaphysics, like the ontology of ties, connexions and relations, problems of exemplification, substrates and tropes theories, particulars, persistence and the metaphysics of space, time and existence. Papers deal with these themes by themselves, or discuss them in an associated way: some of them aim to clarify the complicated conceptual Relations Bergmann have enlarged with major themes of philosophers like Aristotle, Brentano, Meinong and Sellars. The purpose of the book is to provide some light on his central interests, but also in regard of the evolution of the actual scope of his thought.
Book Synopsis Collected Works by : Gustav Bergmann
Download or read book Collected Works written by Gustav Bergmann and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The large majority of the papers in the present volume were collected by Bergmann under the title "Logic and Reality" which indicates the theme of an ontological foundation for logic or of an ontological analysis of analyticity. Actually, the theme is to be found in almost all of the papers of this volume. When Quine published his attack on the analytic-synthetic distinction, Bergmann defended it vehemently. In contrast to Carnap whom Quine criticised Bergmann takes "analytic" in the narrow sense of "logical truth". However, he later extended the area of the analytic a by including truths (falsehoods) expressing the intentional connection between mental states and the facts they purportedly intend. As can be gathered from Selected Papers I Bergmann is a dualist and became more and more interested in intentionality. Another element of the world's form usually not recognised and discovered by Bergmann is the exemplification tie or exemplification nexus which connects individuals and relational and non-relational universals. Intentionality and exemplification are brought together by Bergmann with logical conjunction and disjunction which he considers as connections in reality and not mere symbols. Moreover, Bergmann offers ontological assays of negation and quantification, of variables and their order. Bergmann holds that the recognition of the logical and categorial form of the world including the intentional connection is crucial to arrive at a tenable epistemological realism.

Book Synopsis Wilfrid Sellars and the Foundations of Normativity by : Peter Olen
Download or read book Wilfrid Sellars and the Foundations of Normativity written by Peter Olen and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-10-13 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While Wilfrid Sellars’ philosophy is often depicted in an ahistorical fashion, this book explores the consequences of placing his work in its historical context. In order to show how Sellars’ early publications depend on contextual factors, Peter Olen reconstructs the conceptions of language, psychological, and social explanation that dominated American philosophy in the early 20th century. Because of Sellars’ differing explanations of language and behaviour, Olen argues that many of Sellars’ early commitments are incompatible with his later works. In the course of doing so, Olen highlights problematic tensions between Sellars’ early and later conceptions of language, meta-philosophy, and normativity. Supplementing the main text is a collection of previously unpublished archival material from Wilfrid Sellars, Gustav Bergmann, Everett Hall, and other early 20th century philosophers. This text will be a useful resource to those with an interest in the history of American philosophy, the history of analytic philosophy, Wilfrid Sellars’ philosophy, and the myriad issues surrounding normativity and language.
Book Synopsis Collected Works by : Gustav Bergmann
Download or read book Collected Works written by Gustav Bergmann and published by . This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bergmann's early philosophical work concerned the foundations of psychology and physics (topics were e.g. the behaviorist J B Watson, operationism, psychoanalysis, psychological measurement, psychophysics, emergence and quantum physics). Bergmann was born in Vienna in 1906. After finishing the Gymnasium he registered at the University of Vienna. Before he took a Ph.D. in mathematics with a minor in philosophy in 1928, he had already been invited along with his Gymnasium classmate Kurt Godel to join the Vienna Circle, where he was especially influenced by Schlick, Waismann and Carnap. In 1929-30 Bergmann taught mathematics at a Realschule in Vienna and in the following year he went to Berlin to work as assistant of Einstein together with W. Mayer his dissertation director. Discouraged by the discrimination against Jews at German and Austrian universities Bergmann returned to Vienna to study law. He took a JD and went into a firm of corporation lawyers. When Nazi Germany annexed Austria in 1938 Bergmann emigrated to the United States with financial assistance from Circle Member Otto Neurath. In 1939 he obtained an appointment at the University of Iowa as an assistant to the psychologist Kurt Lewin. He was employed to develop a mathematical representation of Lewin's psychological field theory. In 1940 Bergmann became assistant professor at the Department of Philosophy, and in 1950 full professor of philosophy and psychology. During the 1960s and 1970s Bergmann had a major impact on contemporary philosophy and contemporary issues in the philosophy and methodology of psychology, attracting brilliant students who went on to teach in philosophy and psychology departments of leading universities of the United States. Bergmann and his philosophy students and followers were sometimes referred to as " The Iowa School" or " The Iowa Realists". It brought national and international status to a small philosophy department of a middle-sized midwestern university. From 1967-68 he served as president of the American Philosophical Association (Western Division) and in 1972 he was awarded the first named professorship in the College of Liberal Arts at the University of Iowa as Carver Professor. Bergmann retired in 1974 and died in 1987.

Book Synopsis General Theory of Law and State by : Hans Kelsen
Download or read book General Theory of Law and State written by Hans Kelsen and published by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd.. This book was released on 2009 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reprint of the first edition. This classic work by the important Austrian jurist is the fullest exposition of his enormously influential pure theory of law, which includes a theory of the state. It also has an extensive appendix that discusses the pure theory in comparison with the law of nature, positivism, historical natural law, metaphysical dualism and scientific-critical philosophy. "The scope of the work is truly universal. It never loses itself in vague generalities or in unconnected fragments of thought. On the contrary, precision in the formulation of details and rigorous system are characteristic features of the exposition: only a mind fully concentrated upon that logical structure can possibly follow Kelsen's penetrating analysis. Such a mind will not shrink from the effort necessary for acquainting itself with...the pure theory of law in its more general aspects, and will then pass over to the theory of the state which ends up with a carefully worked out theory of international law." Julius Kraft, American Journal of International Law 40 (1946):496.

Book Synopsis The Positivist and the Ontologist by : Herbert Hochberg
Download or read book The Positivist and the Ontologist written by Herbert Hochberg and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2022-05-09 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book contains the first systematic study of the ontology and metaphysics of Gustav Bergmann, tracing their development from early (1940s) criticisms of Carnap’s semantical theories in Introduction to Semantics, to their culmination in his 1992 New Foundations of Ontology. This involves a detailed study of the implicit metaphysical doctrines in Carnap’s important, but long neglected, 1942 book and their connection to his influential views on reference, truth and modality, (including, contrary to current opinion, Carnap’s initiating the development of predicate modal logic) that culminated in Meaning and Necessity. In dealing with various fundamental issues in ontology and metaphysics, the book discusses relevant views of major philosophers, such as Russell, Moore, Bradley, Wittgenstein, Meinong, Brentano, Husserl, Broad, McTaggart, and Quine, and of contemporary and recent figures, including D. M. Armstrong, D. Lewis, S. Kripke, J. Searle, W. Sellars, D. Davidson, J. J. C. Smart, and H. Feigl. Building on the critical studies of Bergmann, Carnap and such other philosophers, the author argues for a form of Logical Realism derived from important, but long misunderstood and ignored, aspects of Russell’s theories of descriptions, reference and truth.
