Peter F. Strawson on Everyday Language - Dictionary of Arguments
III 189ff Everyday language/Strawson problem: the relations between action ascribing sentences are not to be understood in the predicate calculus like the relations in which the sentences of Davidson's scheme are. >Actions/Davidson. III 194 Solution/Strawson: adverbial access: direct - we cannot understand everyday language sentences (SS) in one respect, without recognizing them as equivalent to Davidson's (DS). >Adverbial analysis. III 196 Only difference: in the Davidson's scheme, the constellations are only clearer, but they are also present in the everyday language sentences - so that we can then introduce a control system for the everyday language - (without having to require control). III 197 Quotation marks show that everyday language sentences have a different but equivalent structure - solution: theory of naming with attached predication shows how the structures intersect. >Predication. III 198 Actions and events generally suffer the identity dependency of substances. >Substance, >Action, >Event._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
