Richard Gaskin presents a work in the philosophy of language. He
analyses what is distinctive about sentences and the propositions
they express--what marks them off from mere lists of words and mere
aggregates of word-meanings respectively. Since he identifies the
world with all the true and false propositions, his account of the
unity of the proposition has significant implications for our
understanding of the nature of reality. He argues that the unity of
the proposition is constituted by a certain infinitistic structure
known in the tradition as "Bradley's regress." Usually, Bradley's
regress has been regarded as vicious, but Gaskin argues that it is
the metaphysical ground of the propositional unity, and gives us an
important insight into the fundamental make-up of the world.
