Abstract

Peter Godfrey-Smith: Quine and Pragmatism: Quine's relationship to the “classical” pragmatist tradition, and his impact on the continuation of that tradition, are described. This influence was mostly due to a few short passages in Quine's work, especially in “Two Dogmas of Empiricism.” Quine does not appear to have been greatly influenced by Peirce, James, or Dewey, and his work departs from them on an issue they regarded as centrally important: the link between thought and action.

KeywordsAnalytic/synthetic distinction; analytic truth; systemic truth; circularity argument; meaning-lite; synonymy; confirmation holism; verificationism; conventionalism; sentence/proposition distinction
