Sinopsis
Excerpt from The Meaning and Function of Thought-Connectives, Vol. 12
The importance of such investigation is, doubtless, in general language greatly increased. But that which general language stands for is also greater than that which mathematical symbols stand for. If then the special language of mathematics must not eclipse the special thought expressed, so also the student of general language should keep in view the general thought of humanity. Thought-study and word-study are two treat ments of the same problem. It is in these days required that each shall use the aid of the other.

Excerpt from The Meaning and Function of Thought-Connectives, Vol. 12
The present investigation would naturally cover all species of that grammatical genus known as conjunctions. For the present, however, the writer is prepared to treat those words only which smooth the passage from one statement to its successor. Even this limited effort, further confined to the English language, seems to require a quasi-apology.
Thought-connectives are presented in some detail by grammar. They form a considerable part of the arsenal of rhetoric. They are in logic the back-bone of syllogistic reasoning. Psychology notes them as the expression of perhaps the highest states of consciousness. There will surely rise the question: "Why thrash old straw?"
It may be answered in general that this straw has indeed been forked over and pitched about a great deal, but has been put to very little genuine thrashing. Some grain has been knocked out and a great deal of chaff; but the most and the best of the kernels remain.
It is claimed in particular that the thought-sciences have, so far as might be, ignored language, neglecting the vast repertory of thought-methods, true and false, of which language is the register. On the other hand the most successful later effort of linguistic science has confined itself to verbal form. The brilliant achievements in this field have blinded the workers and their watchers to the existence of other fields. It is charged indeed, with more or less plainness, that language-study has well-nigh forgotten that language is after all but the expression of thought.

Calificación del vendedor: 5 de 5 estrellas
Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This groundbreaking study aims to unravel the enigmatic nature of thought connectives, those words that forge meaningful links between our thoughts. The author challenges conventional wisdom, positing a novel theory that these connectives do not merely join sentences but rather serve as structural elements within thought itself, allowing us to express complex relationships between ideas. Drawing upon examples from the English language, the author meticulously analyzes the nuances of thought connectives, uncovering their dual role in reinstating previous thoughts and revealing the intricate web of relations that shape our understanding of the world. This book not only deepens our comprehension of linguistic expression but also provides a fresh perspective on the nature of human reasoning, revealing the profound interplay between language and thought. Its insights are invaluable for linguists, cognitive scientists, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the fundamental mechanisms by which we communicate and think. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
