| | Carnap, Rudolf [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy] |
 | | Carnap asserts that two sentences have the same extension if they are equivalent, i.e., if they are both true or both false. | | | Carnap took three courses from Gottlob Frege in 1910, 1913 and 1914. | | | Note that every empirical statement that can be derived from the Carnap sentence is logically true, and thus the Carnap sentence lacks empirical consequences. |

| | MainFrame: The Life of Rudolf Carnap |
| | Carnap never returned to the program envisaged by the book, partly because he came later to prefer a physicalistic rather than phenomenalistic basis. | | | During this period Carnap gradually came to disbelieve in God, without being aware of any change in his beliefs on moral questions. | | | In discussing these ideas, both with friends and in the book, Carnap found himself moving with ease between different kinds of language, e.g. |

| | Bird reconstructs three arguments which Haack claims to find in Carnap's ESO (the ''category argument'', the ''criterion argument'' and the ''pragmatic argument'') and sets out to defend the first of these arguments in turn, while deying the ascription of the last to Carnap. | | | He points out that Carnap in his early days confused provability in a logical system with truth; he shares the critique of Coffa (1998) in this respect. | | | In toto, the book is a must-have for anyone who is interested in (some of) the topics mentioned in the description. |

Note the enmity of Carnap for Heidegger through Carnap's friendship with Wilhelm Flitner. |

| | The Circle sought to "divorce science from metaphysics and to wed it instead to rigorous logic." | | | Carnap attended Gottlob Frege's lectures on logic in 1910 (Frege was professor of mathematics at Jena) and then a second course with Frege in 1913, and a third course in 1914. | | | After his father's death in 1898, his family moved to Barmen, where Carnap studied at the Gymnasium. |

| | Carnap was one of the most influential of contemporary philosophers; he is known as a founder of logical positivism and made important contributions to logic, semantics, and the philosophy of science. | | | Carnap later modified this extreme view, which rejects almost all of traditional philosophy. | | | The Logical Syntax of Language, 1937) he defined philosophy as "the logic of the sciences" and considered it a general language whose only legitimate concern could be to describe and criticize the language of the particular sciences. |

| | Rudolf Carnap / Hector-Neri Castañeda |
| | Carnap's most ambitious contribution to philosophy was his book The Logical Structure of the World (1928), in which he tried to define our whole conceptual framework in terms of one concept, recollection of similarity. | | | He studied physics, mathematics, philosophy and logic and was one of the leading figures of the Vienna circle, which tried to establish a "scientific philosophy" and which was allergic to the obscurantist metaphysics of people like Hegel, Bergson and Heidegger. | | | Carnap worked in the philosophy of science, logic and semantics. |

| | According to the joke, Carnap's method was to begin any philosophical investigation with the statement "Consider a formal language L." As the good logical positivist he was, Carnap desired the precision inherent in formal languages. | | | Formal languages are not natural languages and the problems expressible in formal languages need not connect to actual problems in the real world. | | | There's an old joke about the philosopher Rudolf Carnap and his method of doing philosophy. |

| | For that reason is the philosophy of the Vienna circle called in general logical positivism or logical empiricism. | | | This principle represents radical conventionalism in ontological questions; answers to questions treating of the character of a reality are depending (according to Carnap) on the structure of a language, which is dependent on agreement. | | | According to Carnap's tolerance-principle everybody may select in logic his language how he will. |
