I show that a letter from MacDonald to Ryle found at Linacre College, Oxford, was part of an extensive correspondence, and that the two were intimate friends and philosophical interlocutors, and I explore the relationship between their respective philosophies. MacDonald, who studied with Wittgenstein before coming to Oxford in 1937, deployed and developed Wittgensteinian themes in her own subsequent work. I show that this work was an important source of ideas in Ryle’s philosophy. I examine two episodes: (1) a 1937 symposium in which MacDonald gave the lead paper, and Ryle was a respondent – I argue that Ryle derived his famous distinction between knowledge-how and knowledge-that from her paper; and (2) Ryle’s rejection in Dilemmas (1953/4) of the central importance of the idea of a ‘category mistake’–I argue that this may have been in response to MacDonald’scriticalreviewof The Concept of Mind.

II. § 10.—HAGIOS NIKOLAOS. ON March 31st, 1903, and the three following days I conducted a trial excavation at a site situated at about an hour's distance from Rous- solakkos, and known as Hagios Nikolaos from a small church of that name. During the first three days I employed ten men, on the fourth only two. The most prominent feature of the landscape is the height called Modhi (1776 ft.). From the foot of this there runs almost due east a deep valley with a river-bed, which, although quite dry at the time when I saw it, must sometimes carry off a considerable volume of water from the surrounding hills. The valley is at first narrow and its sides very steep, but a little way above the chapel it broadens out considerably : although the left bank is steep and in places almost precipitous, the right side rises in a gentle slope, forming a series of terraces which are under cultivation and afford a good harvest in spite of the stony character of the soil.

Ogan , 2018, 4(3) :86 - 90 AN EVALUATION OF ELIZABETH ANSCOMBE THOUGHTS O N CONSEQUENTIALISM Tamunosiki V. Ogan , PhD Depart ment of Philosophy, University o f Port Harcourt , Nigeria ABSTRACT All human actions revolve around being right or wrong, good or bad. Humans are therefore sadd led with the responsibility of carrying out right actions. Value statements as well as value in terms of good or bad are given to human actions, and it is the responsibility of ethics to give value judgement. The giving of this judgement is formed against various paradigm s for judgment. The consequences of action become important for those who consider themselves as consequentialist s . For them, the moral rightness of an action is determined by the level of good that emerges from a given action. Could this b e generally acceptable? Should the consequences of actions be the background on which value judgements are to be made or human actions? The emergence of Anscombe’s critique on utilitarianism is formed against this backdrop. For her virtue ethics should tak e the driver’s seat hence actions ought not to be evaluated using the “morally ought” because it gives room for any possible action provided the consequences is good. In up - holding this, she postulates moral psychology as a way forward which she also consi ders to be problematic because the content needs to be properly understood and explained.

    Journal of Greek Linguistics 19 (2019) 215–226 brill.com/jgl Institutional developments in Greek linguistics Abstract In this piece, three items are presented that discuss recent developments in Modern Greek studies in three different academic institutions that have a positive impact on Greek linguistics. Keywords academia – Modern Greek studies – Modern Greek linguistics In the past year or so, several academic institutions have created centers that provide an institutional home for different aspects of Greek studies on their respective campuses.These centers offer a home for, among other things, Greek linguistics. Thus, in this piece, these three developments are presented by way of showcasing these new centers and their potential for a positive impact on Greek linguistics. 1 The Greek Dialectology Lab at The Ohio State University In the summer of 2018, with the blessings of both the outgoing chair of the Department of Linguistics at The Ohio State University (OSU), Shari Speer, and the incoming chair, Cynthia Clopper, an office in the department which had become vacant was designated as laboratory space and assigned to Distin- guished University Professor of Linguistics Brian D. Joseph for his use. Using as a model the highly successful Laboratory of Modern Greek Dialects (http:// lmgd.philology.upatras.gr) at the University of Patras, where he has visited on numerous occasions, he created the Ohio State University Laboratory for Greek Dialectology (Το Εργαστήριο για την Ελληνική Διαλεκτολογία) with the express purpose of promoting the study of Greek dialects, both ancient and modern.
