Abstract

SummaryA satisfactory analysis of the well‐known Hangman Paradox is not known to us. Two theses:1. The logical solution of the Hangman Paradox is easy and disappointing.2. The origins of the paradox are manifold and inexhaustible. We analyse particularly perspicuous tuneless version of the paradox due to Hollis .In a sequel which is to appear in Dialectica we analyse two versions of the original Hangman Paradox. Vorbemerkung: Der zweite Autor verdankt Henri Lauener menschlich und philosophisch mehr als dieser Artikel zeigen wird. Es ist mir selten oder nie gelungen, Henri Lauener für eine meiner philosophischen Positionen zu pewinnen, aber ich glaube mich darin mit ihm einig, dass es sich lohnt, Formalismen ernst zu nehmen, um ihre Grenzen zu erkennen
