INTRODUCTION The present volume unites contributions by the leading figure of the Vienna Circle and by two of his closest assoCiates, contributions that deal with an area of thought represented, indeed, in this Collection but certainly not the central one in the common picture ofthe Circle's activities. It is no accident that an interest in ethics and the philosophy of action was particularly marked in what Neurath was apt to call the right wing of the Circle. For them, as for Wittgenstein (the respected mentorofSchlickandWaismanninparticular), theadvancetobehoped for in philosophy consisted not solely in freeing natural science from a confused sense of dependence on speculative metaphysics but also in seeingthatotherareasoflanguageandaction hadto bethoughtaboutin theirownterms, whichwereneitherthoseofnaturalsciencenorthoseof philosophy as traditionally conceived. The scepticismofSchlick about theprogrammeofUnifiedSciencewaswellknown: EinheizwissenschaJt he called it, as it might be 'boozified science'. And in sober truth the programme sometimes masked a left-wing set of values taken (surely illogically) for granted, though the membersofthe Circle entertained a wide range ofpolitical views.

First published in Germany in 1918, this acutely reasoned treatise attacks many of philosophys contemporary sacred cows, including the concept of metaphysics and Kants arguments for synthetic a priori knowledge. The book expounds most of the doctrines that would later be identified with the classical period of the Vienna Circle. Unlike many of his peers, Schlick displays a detailed and sensitive knowledge of the traditions he criticizes, displayed here in the chief work of this pioneering Viennese philosopher.

Die Allgemeine Erkenntnislehre gilt als das Hauptwerk von Moritz Schlick. Hierin entwickelt Schlick in Auseinandersetzung mit zeitgenossischen Positionen seine einflussreichen Gedanken zum Wesen der Erkenntnis, zum Verhaltnis zwischen Psychologie und Logik, zum Leib-Seele-Problem und zum erkenntnistheoretischen Realismusstreit. Der Text wurde wahrend der fruhen Rostocker Jahre Schlicks, von 1911 bis 1916, verfasst. Die Allgemeine Erkenntnislehre ist ein Meilenstein der wissenschaftlichen Philosophie und grundlegend fur die spatere Entwicklung des Wiener Kreises des Logischen Empirismus. "

Seit beinahe einem Jahrhundert sind Mathematiker und Logiker mit Erfolg bemuht, aus der Logik eine strenge Wissen. schaft zu machen. Dieses Ziel ist in einem gewissen Sinn erreicht worden: man hat gelernt, in der Logistik mit Symbolen und Formeln ahnlich denen der Mathematik in strenger Weise zu operieren. Aber ein logisches Buch muss ausser den Formeln auch Zwischentext enthalten, der mit Hilfe der gewohnlichen Wort. sprache uber die Formeln spricht und ihren Zusammenhang klar macht. Dieser Zwischentext lasst oft an Klarheit und Exakt. heit manches zu wunschen ubrig. In den letzten Jahren nun hat sich bei den Logikern verschiedener Richtungen immer mehr die Einsicht entwickelt, dass dieser Zwischentext das Wesentliche an der Logik ist und dass es darauf ankommt, fur diese Satze uber Satze eine exakte Methode zu entwickeln. Dieses Buch will die systematische Darstellung einer solchen Methode, der "logischen Syntax," geben (nahere Erlauterungen in der Einleitung, 1, 2). In unserem "Wiener Kreis" und in manchen ahnlich gerich. teten Gruppen (in Polen, Frankreich, England, USA. und ver. einzelt sogar in Deutschland) hat sich gegenwartig die Auffassung immer deutlicher herausgebildet, dass die traditionelle meta. physische Philosophie keinen Anspruch auf Wissenschaftlichkeit machen kann. Was an der Arbeit des Philosophen wissenschaft. lich haltbar ist, besteht - soweit es nicht empirische Fragen betrifft, die der Realwissenschaft zuzuweisen sind - in logischer Analyse. Die logische Syntax will nun ein Begriffsgebaude, eine Sprache liefern, mit deren Hilfe die Ergebnisse logischer Analyse exakt formulierbar sind. Philosophie wird durch Wissen."
