the law of excluded middle. In order to get LEM in ordinary language, you have to explain whether sentences like "The present king of France is bald," is true or false in light of the fact that there is no present king of France. Bertrand
Russell said that such a statement should be interpretted as having an existence claim, and so if we want to put it into propositional logic we first have to think of it as the collection of statements, "There is at least one present king of France. If anybody is the present king of France, he's one particular guy (this is just a convoluted way of saying that there is no more than one present king of France). And this guy is bald." This we can turn into propositional logic easily. But it's a massive complication of the theory of logic, which Lambert argues he can wipe out by means of free logic, because free logic doesn't assume that you're talking about anything. So you can still make a formal sentence about the present king of France, and it will be false. But you don't need to assume the existence of the subject of conversation, nor do you need Russell's theory of descriptions. Free logic makes things easy-peasy and philosophically neutral.

for instance, is taken to mean only that it's useful for explaining our observations, not that it really exists. So material objects are defined in terms of our observations, and since our observations are also defined in terms of material objects (Quine even calls himself a physicalist), it's hard to see what's left. This whole spooky worldview or lack thereof is carried over fairly neatly from the Vienna Circle. An anecdote in one of Quine's books illustrates the distinction neatly; he said Carnap had complained about Quine's using the word "ontology" when it didn't mean anything, and Quine replied that in his ethics of terminology, words that didn't mean anything were precisely those ripe for redefinition. Presumably this would also apply to the word "exist" and some others. Quine is closer to the Vienna Circle and farther from common belief than his use of language leads people to believe. The same, incidentally, is true of Daniel
Dennett, another student of Quine's as I recall.

lead us to infer something about his character, which would be unfair. But that just means that Quine's own words were poorly construed. If we can find a good citation, that should remain. I agree, the stuff about
Derrida need not be directly connected to Quine's political beliefs, because while it might be true that the relationship to postmodernism characterizes the academic (or humanities) right and left these days, there's no reason to synthesize a big case out of that kind of speculation. Quine's relationship to Derrida and his inopportune racial comments are footnotes to his career--they need to be included, but not worked into a psychological or political profile. Hmmm... a Google search is unproductive at giving me anything about Quine's "shabby black undergraduates" comment, except by a conservative blog claiming him as one of their own. If someone can dig up a controversy, it's worth being in the article.

cleavage between the analytic and the synthetic. We have found ourselves led, indeed, from the latter problem to the former through the verification theory of meaning." And, once he has claimed that the analytic-synthetic distinction is wrong, together with the verificationist theory of meaning, he says "But the total field is so undetermined by its boundary conditions, experience, that there is much latitude of choice as to what statements to re-evaluate in the light of any single contrary experience. No particular experiences are linked with any particular statements in the interior of the field, except indirectly through considerations of equilibrium affecting the field as a whole."

whether the meaning, understood perhaps in terms of the information they provide, if it is an informative sentence, is changed or remains the same when the words are switched. So, for example, in the case of the sentence "John is a bachelor", can ione replace 'bachelor' with 'unmarried male' and yield the exact same meaning? There are different ways of looking at this. For example, you could argue that the 'unmarried male' is implicitly qualified to mean to refer to humans, but that is not an 'analytic' truth, it depends on your interpretation of the context. Whereas 'bachelor' refers explicitly to human's.

some random (but mostly false, and certainly uncited) claims that
Derrida was "progressive" in order to insinuate something is worse still. There's definitely and obvious some conflict in the styles of thought between analytic philosophers and "continental" ones--Derrrida in particular--but this has nothing to do with politics in the sense of American political parties. Plenty of liberal Democrats in the USA (wrongly to my mind) had the same sort of reaction to Derrida, Foucault, Lacan, etc. that Quine did.

Not only are "bachelor" and "unmarried male" not synonyms (the key question I heard in a philo class was, "Is the Pope a bachelor?"), but I think (its been a while) that Quine's rejection hinges on the idea that an analytic statement must contain concepts that are logically equivalent (synonymous),

A search for "Gavagai" is redirected to the page on W.V.O Quine. I feel the concept is sufficiently notable to deserve a page of its own. Perhaps merging the section on the indeterminacy of translation with other facts about the term in Quine's work would form an adequate little stub on "gavagai".
