Moritz Schlick
Zdanie ma sens tylko wtedy, gdy potrafimy powiedzieć, jak je sprawdzić – więc twierdzenia, których nie da się w żaden sposób przetestować, nic nie mówią.

Stanowisko
Schlick wanted philosophy to learn from the revolution in physics, above all from Einstein’s relativity, which he was among the first to interpret philosophically. Knowledge, he argued, is not a mirror of things but a coordination of signs with reality. In the Vienna years he defended the principle that the meaning of a statement lies in the method of its verification: what no possible experience could ever confirm or refute says nothing at all. Philosophy thus becomes not a body of doctrines but an activity of clarifying meaning, while the sciences establish truths. This program shaped logical empiricism and, through Carnap and others, analytic philosophy in the English-speaking world.
Życie i kontekst
Born in Berlin in 1882, Schlick earned his doctorate in physics under Max Planck before turning to philosophy. After posts in Rostock and Kiel he took the chair of natural philosophy in Vienna in 1922, where a discussion group of philosophers, mathematicians and scientists formed around him: the Vienna Circle. In 1936 he was shot dead on the university steps by a former student.
