Routledge Philosophy GuideBook to Frege on Sense and Reference
About this book
Gottlob Frege (1848-1925) is considered the father of modern logic and one of the founding figures of analytic philosophy. He was first and foremost a mathematician, but his major works also made important contributions to the philosophy of language.
Frege's writings are difficult and deal with technical, abstract concepts. The Routledge Philosophy Guidebook to Frege On Sense and Reference helps the student to get to grips with Frege's thought, and introduces and assesses:
- the background of Frege's philosophical work
- Frege's main papers and arguments, focussing on his distinction between sense and reference
- the continuing importance of Frege's work to philosophy of logic and language.
Ideal for those coming to Frege for the first time, and containing fresh insights for anyone interested in his philosophy, this Guidebook is essential reading for all students of philosophy of language, philosophical logic and the history of analytic philosophy.
