Description

Explore three groundbreaking linguistic projects from the seventeenth century in this comprehensive historical study. This book examines the artificial languages developed by Dalgarno and Wilkins alongside Leibniz's uncompleted linguistic scheme, treating each as a distinct intellectual undertaking worthy of detailed analysis. The author provides extensive descriptions of these pioneering projects whilst situating them within their broader intellectual context, revealing how these early attempts at constructed languages interconnected with philosophical and scientific thought of the era. Written for scholars and historians interested in the origins of formal linguistics and the history of language philosophy, this work illuminates how seventeenth-century thinkers grappled with the possibilities of creating rational, systematic languages to express knowledge with precision and clarity.

Key Features

The book covers artificial languages created by Dalgarno and Wilkins, examining each project as an independent achievement deserving individual study and evaluation.

Leibniz's uncompleted linguistic scheme receives substantial treatment, detailing his contributions to seventeenth-century language philosophy alongside contemporary alternative approaches.

Multiple interrelations between the three philosophical language projects are explored at length, demonstrating how these schemes influenced and related to each other.

The work links these linguistic undertakings to their intellectual context, connecting them with the broader philosophical and scientific movements of the seventeenth century.
