Abstract

In I Taking Frege at his Word i , Joan Weiner proposes a wide-ranging re-thinking of Frege's philosophical and mathematical projects. First, much of the discussion of Frege's semantic arguments (or, according to Weiner, lack thereof) in Chapters 4 and 5 (and elsewhere) focuses on whether or not Frege gave I metatheoretical i arguments in I Begriffsschrift i , I Grundgesetze i , and elsewhere. The book concludes with two chapters which focus on fruitful applications of Frege's ideas (on Weiner's understanding of them). [Extracted from the article]
