Riguardo questo articolo

Print on Demand. This book presents a groundbreaking theory, arguing that thought and language are essentially the same. The author challenges traditional assumptions about the origins of language, suggesting instead that its roots lie in our own consciousness. By examining the fundamental elements of language and thought, the book reveals the simplicity and accessibility of our cognitive processes. It provides a unique perspective on the nature of human understanding, demonstrating that the building blocks of our language are also the building blocks of our thoughts. This theory has far-reaching implications for our understanding of language, philosophy, and the human mind itself. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.

Riassunto

Excerpt from Three Introductory Lectures on the Science of Thought

You say I shall never live to see it admitted that man cannot reason without words. This does not discourage me. Through the whole of my life I have cared for truth, not for success. And truth is not our own. We may seek truth, serve truth, love truth; but truth takes care of herself, and she inspires her true lovers with the same feeling of perfect trust. Those who cannot believe in themselves, unless they are believed in by others, have never known what truth is. Those who have found truth, know best how little it is their work, and how small the merit which they can claim for themselves. They were blind before, and now they can see. That is all.

But even if I thought that truth depended on majorities, I believe I might boldly say that the majority of philosophers of all ages and countries is really on my side,* though few only have asserted the identity of reason and language without some timor ous reserve, still fewer have seen all the consequences that flow from it.
