Abstract

An outline of a metaphysical system of idealist character, but developed against the background of linguistic criticism of traditional metaphysics. The central argument is "that certain conditions must be met by reality, or parts of it, if we are able to talk sense at all and,... that having experience or being aware depends upon the possibility of talking sense." Some of the problems discussed concern thought and the self, thought and reality, possibility, value and reality.--J. J.
