Examples

  • (Russell's and Carnap's versions of structuralism were more directly motivated by epistemological and semantic problems than by ontological issues arising from physics.)

    Structural Realism Ladyman, James 2009

  • So in this sense we could say that Kuhn played Hegel to Carnap's Kant.

    Scientific Revolutions Nickles, Thomas 2009

  • Hosiasson formulated an axiomatic system of inductive logic, anticipating Carnap's later work.

    Lvov-Warsaw School Wole&324;ski, Jan 2009

  • Stathis Psillos (1999) has explored the connections between structuralism and the Ramsey-sentence approach to scientific theory as it figured in the development of Carnap's philosophy from logical positivism to ontologically relativist empiricism.

    Structural Realism Ladyman, James 2009

  • Willard Van Orman Quine combined behaviorist psychology with a normative conception of logical form similar to Carnap's.

    Logical Form Pietroski, Paul 2009

  • (Carnap's 1946 paper concerned only S5 and contained no such relation.)

    The Sun Is Not 2009

  • With this technology, theorists can distinguish the values of the two descriptions above, since they are structures with different components (cf. Carnap's [1947] notion of intensional isomorphism).

    Names Cumming, Sam 2009

  • Prior does not refer to, and presumably had not at that time read, Carnap's 1946 paper ˜Modalities and Quantification™, which attempted a semantics for quantified S5 in terms of state-descriptions.

    The Sun Is Not 2009

  • In Carnap's frameworks these were explicit systems of logical rules, whereas Kuhn's account of normal science largely jettisoned rule-based knowledge in favor of a kind of case-based tacit knowledge, the cases being the concrete exemplars.

    Scientific Revolutions Nickles, Thomas 2009

  • Pragmatism's injunction to abandon metaphysics might then be thought of as setting the stage for the radically different idioms of Heidegger's ontology and Carnap's logicism, or what is sometimes called the Continental/analytic divide.
