What is philosophy about and what are its methods? Philosophy and
Ordinary Language is a defence of the view that philosophy is
largely about questions of language, which to a large extent means
ordinary language. Some people argue that if philosophy is about
ordinary language, then it is necessarily less deep and difficult
than it is usually taken to be but Oswald Hanfling shows us that
this isn't true.
Hanfling, a leading expert in the development of analytic
philosophy, covers a wide range of topics, including scepticism and
the definition of knowledge, free will, empiricism, folk
psychology, ordinary versus artificial logic, and philosophy versus
science. Drawing on philosophers such as Austin, Wittgenstein, and
Quine, this book explores the nature of ordinary language in
philosophy.
