PART I: KICKING PHILOSOPHY UPSTAIRS: AN INTRODUCTION TO VIC DUDMAN'S CODE-BREAKING GRAMMAR; J.Curthoys -- Introduction -- Section One: Grammar -- Section Two: Philosophy : 'There will still be plenty left' -- Endnotes -- PART II: ENGLISH GRAMMAR AND THE ENGLISH MODALS; V.H.Dudman -- Messages -- Primary Messages -- States and Events -- The Fulcrum -- The Modals -- Secondary Messages -- ProjEctives -- PrActicals -- PrOpers -- Judgements As Time Goes By.

Over half a century ago, J. L. Austin predicted developments in the discipline of grammar which, in properly establishing it as a science, would at the same time displace a large part of philosophy - philosophical logic, to be specific. With the boundary finally removed between what philosophers then called 'logical syntax' (essentially logical form) and what grammarians study as syntax, Austin believed that 'we shall have rid ourselves of one more part of philosophy. in the only way we ever can get rid of philosophy, by kicking it upstairs'. It was a radical, almost heretical, vision - the study of logic, one of the original and fundamental planks of philosophy, subsumed under the science of grammar. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Victor Dudman developed an English grammar of the kind Austin had predicted. His work impressed many, but was ultimately misunderstood. Jean Curthoys' introduction explores the philosophical issues involved in those misunderstandings. Dudman's later, unfinished, but conceptually most complete, work is the second part of this book.
