Tra queste due attivita dello spirito l'interdipendenza e cosi profonda che nell'uomo lo sviluppo intellettuale e fortemente condizionato dall'apprendimento del linguaggio, mentre, viceversa, l'apprendimento del linguaggio e sempre proporzionato allo sviluppo del pensiero. C'e di piu: si e registrato un rapporto di interdipendenza anche tra procedimenti logici e strutture linguistiche, e tra la cosmovisione di una popolazione e la sua lingua. Per esempio le lingue ad alfabeto iconico sono meno propizie all'argomentazione logica e alla razionalizzazione scientifica e filosofica delle cose di quanto non lo siano le lingue dotate di un alfabeto convenzionale. 1986-01-01T00:00:00Z /library/oar/handle/123456789/33065 Title: Paul Tillich's protestant principle Abstract: An understanding of Tillich's Protestant principle is crucial if one is to deal with this significant theologian's theology of culture. This "principle" is fundamental in Tillich's rejection of pure autonomy and heteronomy, as he moves toward the ideal in theonomy. The purpose of this article is first of all to define the principle and then locate and explain its main tenets: justification through faith; refusal to leave the boundary; resistance of dogma; support for theological development; and rooting authority in Grace. We will conclude with Tillich's remarks on the future significance of this principle. 1986-01-01T00:00:00Z /library/oar/handle/123456789/33064 Title: Intention and the explanation of human actions Abstract: In 'Three Ways of Spilling Ink' J.L. Austin introduces the notion of intention in this way: "As I go through life, doing, as we suppose, one thing after another, I in general always have an idea - some idea, my idea, or picture, or notion, or conception - of what I'm up to, what I'm engaged in, what I'm about, or in general 'what I'm doing' ... I must be supposed to have as it were a plan, an operation-order or something of the kind on which I'm acting, which I am seeking to put into effect, carry out in action: only of course nothing necessarily or, usually, even faintly, so full-blooded as a plan proper". 1986-01-01T00:00:00Z
