The Oxford Companion to Philosophy Part 65

The Oxford Companion to Philosophy Part 65. The book is alphabetized by the whole headings of entries, as distinct from the first word of a heading. Hence, for example, abandonment comes before a priori and a posteriori. It is wise to look elsewhere if something seems to be missing. At the end of the book there is also a useful appendix on Logical Symbols as well as the appendices A Chronological Table of Philosophy and Maps of Philosophy. | 620 Moore G. E. since typically we all themselves included knew that they were true. What then was seriously genuinely problematic Moore s answer hugely influential for most of the twentieth century was the analysis of propositions. Among English-language philosophers at any rate this seemed radically to transform the philosophical agenda. We know what a given proposition means and we know it to be true the question then is not Is it true or even Do we know it to be true but What is its correct analysis The notion of analysis was itself always controversial but Moore s own most persistent pursuit of analyses dealt with very ordinary propositions about familiar objects for example This is a hand . He held that the analysis of these must always bring in the very puzzling items he called sense-data the proposition is really about a sensedatum that one has and the problem is how in the analysis the relation between sense-datum and object should be spelled out. He never believed that he had worked this out quite satisfactorily. Also vastly influential was Moore s work in ethics notably in Principia Ethica 1903 . Here his insistence on the indefinability of good and his exposition of the so-called naturalistic fallacy were long regarded by many as path-breaking advances in moral philosophy. In historical perspective however this work looks a good deal less impressive and durable than his contributions in other fields. See also his Ethics 1912 . Moore s working life was spent mainly in Cambridge though he taught for some years in America during the Second World War. He was a university lecturer from 1911 and Professor of Philosophy and Fellow of Trinity College from 1925 to 1939. He was editor of the periodical Mind from 1921 to 1947 and was appointed to the Order of Merit in 1951. g.j.w. common-sense paradox of analysis. A. Ambrose and M. Lazerowitz eds. G. E.
