1 This paper develops ideas presented for the first time in our 2001 and (in press), which present a detailed history of the act-content-object distinction in relation to the concepts of truthmakers and truthbearers. The first stresses developments in our understanding of those special objects of judgments called states of affairs. The second concerns mainly the general development of theories of judgment at the turn of the last century. The present paper concerns especially the development of the concept of the objectivity of truth.

Those who conceive logic as a science have generally favoured one of two alternative conceptions as to what the subject-matter of this science ought to be. On the one hand is the nowadays somewhat old-fashioned seeming view of logic as the science of judgment, or of thinking or reason ing activities in general. On the other hand is the view of logic as a science of ideal meanings,'thoughts', or'propositions in themselves'.

Along with almost all the more important Polish philosophers of the twentieth century, Kotarbinski, too, was a student of Kasimir Twardowski, and it is Twardowski who is more than anyone else responsible for the rigorous thinking and simplicity of expression that is so characteristic of Kotarbinski's work.

The whole, that which is compounded out of something, is one, not like a heap, but like a syllable. Now the syllable is not its elements; ba is not the same as b and a, nor is flesh the same as fire and earth (for when these are separated the wholes, ie the flesh and the syllable, no longer exist, but the elements of the syllable exist, and so do fire and earth); the syllable, then, is something-not only its elements (the vowel and the consonant) but also something else, and the flesh is not only fire and earth, or the hot and the cold, but also ...

For some time now, historians of philosophy have been gradually coming to terms with the idea that post-Kantian philosophy in the German-speaking world ought properly to be divided into two separate traditions which, for want of a better alternative, we might refer to these as the German and Austriantraditions, respectively. The main line of the first consists in a list of personages beginning with Kant, Fichte, Hegel, Schelling, Ulrici, Cohen, and ending with Heidegger, Adorno and Bloch.

The Origins of Phenomenology in Austro-German Philosophy. Brentano, Husserl (Blackwell Companion, 2019)2019 •
The development of phenomenology in nineteenth‐century German philosophy is that of a particular stream within the larger historical‐philosophical complex of Austro‐German philosophy. As the “grandfather of phenomenology” resp. the “disgusted grandfather of phenomenology,” but also as the key figure on the “Anglo‐Austrian Analytic Axis”, Brentano is at the source of the two main philosophical traditions in twentieth‐century philosophy. This chapter focuses mainly on his place in nineteenth‐century European philosophy and on the central themes and concepts in his philosophy that were determinant in the development of the philosophy of his most gifted student: Edmund Husserl. Despite the variety of stances which Brentano expressed on ontology, metaphysics, and psychology over the course of his career, the five general principles remain central to his whole philosophy throughout: they have an important place in what could be called Brentano's philosophical worldview or system. By extension, they also are essential to his conception of phenomenology.

Logical analysis and its ontological consequences : Rise, fall and resurgence of intensional objects in contemporary philosophy - 20112011 •
The aim of this paper will be to show how significant the logical theories of judgement which were worked out at the end of the nineteenth century have been for the ontological thought during the twentieth century. Against the classical-Aristotelian and Scholastic-analysis of predicative judgement, Franz Brentano on one hand and Gottlob Frege on the other hand have leveled two different criticisms, which then generated two radically divergent ontological paradigms. On one side, despite Brentano's own nominalistic stands, there was a tremendous extension of the general category of " object " as well as of the notion of " being " with, as a consequence, the exceptionnally luxuriant ontologies of Brentano's heirs. On the other side, notwithstanding Frege's own Platonistic affinities, there was a drastic deflation of the realm of objects to the benefit of the realm of concepts taken as classifying functions, and therefore a strong nominalistic trend among Frege's heirs. The development of quantified modal logics at the middle of twentieth century however forced contemporary ontology to reconsider this simple alternative in order to give place to some hybrid entities such as individual concepts or other kinds of " intensional objects ".
