Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich Philosophie - Theoretische (Erkenntnis, Wissenschaft, Logik, Sprache), Note: 3,0, Universität Mannheim, Veranstaltung: Quine, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Menschen auf der ganzen Welt kommunizieren miteinander in allen erdenklichen Sprachen. Jeder von uns besitzt mehrere Wörterbücher, lernt in der Schule Fremdsprachen und belegt Sprachkurse für den Urlaub. Es gibt Sprachforscher, Fremdsprachenkorrespondenten, Dolmetscher und Wörterbuchautoren, die ihren Beruf Übersetzungen und der Verschiedenheit und Vielseitigkeit der Sprachen verdanken. Ohne die Übertragung von Inhalten aus einer Sprache in eine andere Sprache, sprich Übersetzungen, wäre jedes Land abgeschirmt. Es gäbe keinen globalen Handel und fast keine Migrationsbewegungen, weil sich niemand in fremden Ländern verständigen könnte. Übersetzungen sind ein wichtiger Bestandteil des Lebens eines jeden von uns. Aber wo haben sie ihren Ursprung Quine kritisiert in seinem Aufsatz 'word and object' die Annahme, dass Sprache in der Struktur schon vorhanden ist. Er sieht die Existenz einer Blackbox als sehr zweifelhaft an.Als Bedeutungsskeptiker ist der Begriff der Bedeutung für ihn unklar, genauso wie die Sprache. Es gibt zu jeder noch so brillianten Übersetzung mehrere Alternativen, die sich sogar oft gegenseitig ausschließen oder nichts miteinander gemeinsam haben.Deswegen arbeitet er in seinem Aufsatz nicht mit Begriffen, um andere Begriffe zu erklären, sondern mit einem Gedankenexperiment, dem 'Gavagai-Experiment', um das es in meiner Hausarbeit geht. Es soll zeigen, dass es nicht gelingen kann, einer vollkommen fremden Sprache eine eindeutige Bedeutung zuzuteilen. Im Folgenden will ich die Schritte, die zu Quines These der Unbestimmtheit der Urübersetzung führen, erläutern.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - W. V. Quine (1908-2000) was quite simply the most distinguished analytic philosopher of the later half of the twentieth century. His celebrated attack on the analytic/synthetic tradition heralded a major shift away from the views of language descended from logical positivism. His most important book, Word and Object, introduced the concept of indeterminacy of radical translation, a bleak view of the nature of the language with which we ascribe thoughts and beliefs to ourselves and others. Quine is also famous for the view that epistemology should be naturalized, that is conducted in a scientific spirit with the object of investigating the relationship between the inputs of experience and the outputs of belief. The eleven essays in this volume cover all the central topics of Quine's philosophy: the underdetermination of physical theory, analycity, naturalism, propositional attitudes, behaviorism, reference and ontology, positivism, holism and logic.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2009 im Fachbereich Philosophie - Philosophie des 20. Jahrhunderts, Note: sehr gut, Universität Zürich, Veranstaltung: Seminar: Die Philosophie Quines, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Willard Van Orman Quine gilt als einer der einflussreichsten und am meisten diskutierten Philosophen des 20. Jahrhunderts. Unter seinen zahlreichen Veroffentlichungen nimmt sein 1960 erschienenes Buch Word and Object einen besonders kontroversen Stellenwert ein. Vor allem das darin enthaltene Gedankenexperiment der «radical translation» hat weit über das eigentliche Feld der analytischen Philosophie hinaus Berühmtheit erlangt. Dieses berühmt-berüchtigte Gedankenexperiment stellt den Ausganspunkt der vorliegenden Arbeit dar. In einem ersten Schritt werden, ausgehend von der 'Dschungelszene', in der Quines «radical translation» passiert, die für seine Argumentation zentralen Begriffe erarbeitet. In einem weiteren Schritt wird das Argument, das zu Quines These der «indeterminacy of translation» führt, rekonstruiert. Im Folgenden sollen die darin enthaltenen Pramissen zu Quines behaviouristischer Konzeption von Sprache auf den Erstspracherwerb übertragen werden. Die Idee dahinter ist, dass es eine strukturelle Ahnlichkeit zwischen der «radical translation» und dem Erstspracherwerb gibt. Dabei steht eine Frage im Zentrum: Wenn sprachlernende Kinder mit denselben Problemen konfrontiert sind, wie urübersetzende Feldlinguisten, wie ist es dann zu erklaren, dass der Erstspracherwerb in den meisten Fallen so verblüffend gut funktioniert Diese Frage ist der Anknüpfungspunkt zweier nativistischer Einwande gegen Quines Spracherwerbstheorie, auf die ich im weiteren Verlauf der Arbeit den Fokus richten werde. Es sind die 'Unzulanglichkeit des Stimulus' und die 'Ambiguitat ostensiver Definition'. Zum Abschluss werde ich die Kritik an Quine, die bei diesen beiden Einwanden ansetzt, zumindest teilweise zurückzuweisen versuchen.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - It is gratifying to see that philosophers' continued interest in Words and Objections has been so strong as to motivate a paperback edition. This is gratifying because it vindicates the editors' belief in the permanent im portance of Quine's philosophy and in the value of the papers com menting on it which were collected in our volume. Apart from a couple of small corrections, only one change has been made. The list of Professor Quine's writings has been brought up to date. The editors cannot claim any credit for this improvement, however. We have not tried to imitate the Library of Living Philosophers volumes and to include Professor Quine's autobiography in this volume, but we are fortunate to publish here his brand-new auto bibliography. 1975 THE EDITORS TABLE OF CONTENTS V PREFACE 1 EDITORIAL INTRODUCTION 1. 1.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The modern discussion on the concept of truthlikeness was started in 1960. In his influential Word and Object, W. V. O. Quine argued that Charles Peirce's definition of truth as the limit of inquiry is faulty for the reason that the notion 'nearer than' is only 'defined for numbers and not for theories'. In his contribution to the 1960 International Congress for Logic, Methodology, and Philosophy of Science at Stan ford, Karl Popper defended the opposite view by defining a compara tive notion of verisimilitude for theories. was originally introduced by the The concept of verisimilitude Ancient sceptics to moderate their radical thesis of the inaccessibility of truth. But soon verisimilitudo, indicating likeness to the truth, was confused with probabilitas, which expresses an opiniotative attitude weaker than full certainty. The idea of truthlikeness fell in disrepute also as a result of the careless, often confused and metaphysically loaded way in which many philosophers used - and still use - such concepts as 'degree of truth', 'approximate truth', 'partial truth', and 'approach to the truth'. Popper's great achievement was his insight that the criticism against truthlikeness - by those who urge that it is meaningless to speak about 'closeness to truth' - is more based on prejudice than argument.

XV, (1), 294 pp. First edition of Quine's main work, in which he introduces the notorious indeterminacy of translation thesis. This is the most philosophical of all of Quine's works, and it has greatly affected the development of logic, philosophy of language and mathematics and analytic philosophy in general.It is in this work that Quine propounds his "indeterminacy of translation"-thesis, which became central in the development of philosophy of language. "Language is a social art. In acquiring it we have to depend on intersubjectively available cues such as to what to say and when. Hence there is no justification for collating linguistic meanings, unless in terms of men's dispositions to respond overtly to socially observable stimulations." (Preface p. IX).By considering the linguist, who attempts to translate a hitherto unknown language. There are different methods that the linguist could apply as to the breaking down of sentences and distribution of function among the words. Quine reaches the conclusion that if any hypothesis of translation needs to be defended, this can only be by appeal to context, by determining what other sentences the language user would utter in the language that is unknown to the linguist. But even here the indeterminacy of translation sets in, because, according to Quine, any hypothesis can be defended, if only enough other hypotheses of other parts of the language are adopted. This indeterminacy of language also applies to the known languages, and even one's own, and thus Quine implies that there are no such entities as "meanings" of right and wrong. Quine thus denies any absolute standards in translating one language into another, but he admits that there are good and bad translation, -this is just not philosophically or logically relevant. Translation can be inconsistent with behavioral evidence, however and thus Quine propounds his pragmatic view of translation. "Neurath has likened science to a boat, which, if we are to rebuild it, we must rebuild plank by plank while staying afloat in it. The philosopher and the scientist are in the same boat. If we improve our understanding of ordinary talk of physical things, it will not be by reducing that talk to a more familiar idiom" there is none. It will be by clarifying the connections, causal or otherwise, between ordinary talk of physical things and various further matters which in turn we grasp with the help of ordinary talk of physical things." (P. 3 - § 9).
