Baron's "Growing Up With Language"
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page report on this book by Naomi Baron, "Growing up with Language: How Children Learn to Talk." Many books of this type are dated nearly as soon as they are published. It has been nearly a decade since its first printing, and it appears to be as valid now as when it was published. Indeed, it may be more so because other researchers also have adopted some of the premises contained in the work. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Bertrand Russell/On Denoting
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page research paper that discusses an aspect of Russell's career and philosophy. Between the publication of Principles of Mathematics in 1903 and his article "On Denoting" in 1905, the views of Bertrand Russell on the semantics of propositions in sentence that contain denoting phrases changed considerably. This examination of this factor in Russell's work looks at the impetus behind change and how the change expressed Russell's views on the relationship between the grammatical form of a denoting phrase and the logical form of the proposition that it expresses. In so doing, Russell logically connects the realms of logic in the study of mathematics and semantics. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
