10Back to the future: A methodology for comparing old A-level and new AS standardsEducational Studies 28 (2): 163-180. 2002.Curriculum 2000 has meant significant change for the post-16 sector. New qualifications have been introduced (e.g. the new Advanced Subsidiary examination) and the number of students involved in education and training post-16 has increased.

98Herder’s Philosophy of Language, Interpretation, and Translation: Three Fundamental PrinciplesReview of Metaphysics 56 (2). 2002.A GOOD CASE COULD BE MADE that Herder is the founder not only of the modern philosophy of language but also of the modern philosophy of interpretation and translation and that he has many things to say on these subjects from which we may still learn today.

This book explores Wittgenstein's views on these questions. Part I interprets his conception of grammar as a generalized version of Kant's transcendental idealist …Read more
