Grammar in early twentieth century philosophy

the long version

"In this book, ten essays examine the contributions made to the issue of the philosophical significance of grammar. The introduction presents the reader with a systematic perspective on some of the issues explored by these philosophers. The questions raised by these philosophers include the following: If language is about the world, and language is governed by grammar, can the world be said to have a kind of grammar also? If so, what does this grammar look like? Is such a grammar a reflection of some empirical language, or perhaps an idealization of grammatical features of empirical language? Is there a privileged grammar of a natural or artificial language which we can regard as providing us with a unique and privileged access to the metaphysical structure of the world?"--BOOK JACKET.
