Week Thirteen

1. What is conceptual analysis?

2. Think of some other conceptual analysis you have done in other philosophy courses? What was the purpose? What was the method?

3. If we 'recarve' a sentence/thought, is it the same thought? Why might you think not?

4. Whats the cognitive criterion for thoughts?

5. How should we individuate thoughts?

6. What was Frege trying to preserve in his conceptual analysis? What do you think, what did Dummet think, and what does Blanchette think?
