Questions bordering on meaninglessness in analytical philosophy
 Holasová, Karolina ; Arazim, Pavel (advisor) ; Šebela, Karel (referee)
An objective of classical analytical philosophy was to define a philosopher proposition via modern logics. Because of that, they started to examine what is and what is not a meaningful question which it makes sense to answer. As succesors of a great philosoph G. Frege logical positivists such as Rudolf Carnap, Wittgenstein, Schlick or Ayer approached the problem of language and especially of the language of philosphy very criticaly. The reason why they decided to question a meaningful proposition was because many questions of their fellow non-analytical philosophers such as for example Heidegger were considered by logical positivists as nonsensical. The result of their inquiry was that some logical positivists even excluded questions of ethics and aesthetics, or, for example the question whether God exists or whether our soul is immortal. But theses questions are important and it is very natural to assume an attitude towards them. Our thesis will examine the attitudes towards these questions of several analytical philospohers .
