Philosophy and Ordinary

Language

Oswald Hanfling has written a lucid, painstaking, thorough and

comprehensive defence of a certain method in philosophy, a method

used, consciously or not, by many philosophers, derided by some,

and mainly associated in our century with the names of Austin and

Wittgenstein.

Sir Peter Strawson, Oxford University

This is a timely book. Oswald Hanfling offers a clearly-written and

wide-ranging defence of ‘ordinary language philosophy’.

Michael Beaney, Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg

This is an important and much needed book. Oswald Hanfling

engages in a lively defence of ordinary language philosophy – the

appeal to ‘what we say’ – while correcting some of the errors of its

founders (Austin and Ryle) and rebutting both traditional and recent

philosophical attacks on ordinary language. A courageous and

salutary effort!

Robert Arrington, Georgia State University

Oswald Hanfling is Professor of Philosophy at the Open University.

He is the author of several books including, Logical Positivism, The

Quest for Meaning, and Wittgenstein’s Later Philosophy.
