5. Theory of Logic / E. Structures of Logic / 1. Logical Form

8132	We now have a much more sophisticated understanding of logical form in language [Burge]
	Full Idea: The second half of the twentieth century has seen the development of a vastly more sophisticated sense of logical form, as applied to natural languages.
	From: Tyler Burge (Philosophy of Mind: 1950-2000 [2005], p.462)
	A reaction: Burge cites this as one of the three big modern developments (along with the critique of logical positivism, and direct reference/anti-individualism). Vagueness may be the last frontier for this development.
