Synopsis
Logic In Its Application To Language by Robert Gordon Latham. This work presents a pedagogical exploration of how logic is applied to language, arguing that language should lead to logic and focusing on the elements of grammar and logic—propositions, names, and parts of speech. Latham treats statements, assertions, and propositions, the three parts of a proposition, and the distinction between subject, predicate, and copula, before moving to the ordinary syllogism and its moods and figures. He emphasizes that elementary logic can be taught to youths by examining everyday linguistic phenomena, including universal and particular terms, terms of size and generality, and the structure of terms and terms in extended phrases. The volume also surveys the relation between language and thought, the role of notation and notation in logic, and the interplay between philology and formal logic, drawing on Mill, De Morgan, Boole, and Hamilton. Written for students, it frames logic as a tool for understanding not only reasoning but language itself, and aims to promote an educational grammar of language.
