	Philosophers : Gertrude Elizabeth Margaret Anscombe (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Perhaps the most distinguished woman English philosopher ever, G.E.M. Anscombe is a member of the analytical school of philosophy, contributing widely to the fields of logic, semiotics, semantics, and theory of language.
		Anscombe states that the Tractatus could be understood if there were a sensible verification theory, in order to discuss statements like "what can be said at all can be said clearly, and what cannot be spoken of we must be silent about." She does not think that there is such a theory, though.
		In Three Philosophers Anscombe contributes an essay on Aristotle, describing his importance to contemporary analytic philosophy, especially in logic and theory of meaning.

	Amazon.com: The Interview Room: Books: Roderick Anscombe (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Anscombe, a forensic psychiatrist and assistant clinical professor at Harvard Medical School, knows the traps of ego, counter-transference, and desire to win that can befall therapists, even those at the top of their game, and subjects Paul to most of them, in slow-torture, drip-by-drip fashion, until the unclear ending.
		Anscombe keeps the pressure on Paul too intense, the introspection too continuous, the feelings of inevitability too unshakable, the foreshadowing of defeat too inescapable, and the ending too ambiguous for many readers.
		Anscombe's traps set for Paul are typical of therapeutic interactions; and Paul's actions would be grist for the mill for discussions about ethics, proper professional distance, and effectiveness with clients for readers who are in helping professions.

	Strengths of Virtue Ethics
		GEM Anscombe and Alasdair MacIntyre have been particularly influential in this process.
		Elizabeth Anscombe argued that the concept of moral duty rests on theological background assumptions.
		With the decline of classical theism, though, there is no longer widespread belief in the theological assumptions that ground the concept of moral obligation.

	Epidemiologic Perspectives & Innovations \| Full text \| Causal thinking and causal language in epidemiology: it's in the ...
		The epidemiologist might find himself at home in the philosophical tradition that Anscombe is concerned to put to one side, or that part of it which looks to strict or statistical laws when attempting to articulate the essence of causal relations, and choose to dismiss her attempt to refocus philosophical awareness of causation as irrelevant.
		But to the extent that he finds Anscombe's argument intriguing, even if not compelling, to that same extent he is faced with reasons to refrain from couching his findings in causal language.
		Anscombe remarks that our knowledge of causality is acquired through the learning of diverse causal concepts associated with actions and events.

	FT October 2001: Correspondence
		E. Anscombe: Living the Truth” (May) was fascinating and informative.
		Hundreds of thousands of those who never heard of Anscombe, and many who never read Aristotle, Aquinas, Anselm, or Frege for themselves, read and were won over by Lewis.
		For all her wonderful exposition of truth and living of that truth, perhaps Anscombe’s greatest service to her Lord and to the human race was prompting Lewis into becoming the apostle to the nonacademic.

	Will Johnson: Paintings of Things and Not-Things
		This continuity of sensibility likewise bridges what superficially may seem a discontinuity in the works in this exhibition: those in grisaille or nearly so, narrative, with a space filled sometimes to produce the effect of a clutter, and those in color, depending on color, ostensibly not narrative, treating of space as void.
		All this, and yet all this is rendered ironic by the title, read as a koan: “This Day One Inch Foot Gem.” 3 Parse the phrase.
		Surely the gem in question is not merely another object of conspicuous consumption depicted in the painting; rather, it is the lapis philosophorum, the ‘philosopher’s stone,’ metonymy of the self.

	editorial
		“Consequentialism” (introduced by GEM Anscombe in 1958 [1]) is an example of the former method, and “utility” an example of the latter.
		However, there are at least two important ways in which philosophy differs from other disciplines in its use of redefined words from common language.

	Reproducing the Image: A reflection following the meeting of the Society for Scriptural Reasoning, November 2003
		In considering Taylor's anthropology, and noting where Kepnes' account coincides with and differs from it, we may be able to discern a bit of what makes a scriptural anthropology distinctive.
		Taylor follows in a line of moral philosophers beginning with the likes of GEM Anscombe, and enriched by the likes of Iris Murdoch, that ties moral theories and conceptions of practical reason back to a conception of the human agent.
		They ask questions like, "What kind of persons would we be if theories like Utilitarianism were illuminating?" Such an anthropological question then becomes the strategy for critiquing many of the moral theories on offer.

	European Society for Philosophy and Psychology Meeting Proceedings
		In my paper, I seek to revive, repair, and in some cases, supply the arguments for GEM Anscombe’s claim in Intention that agents have a special ‘non-observational’ awareness of their intentional actions.
		An agent’s awareness of her intentional action is different from her perceptual awareness of an external object in the world, even though in both cases a direct theory (excluding intermediaries between such awareness and its object) is appropriate.
		I illustrate this claim by a consideration of Anscombe’s thought experiment of the ‘A’ users, a community of language users that uses ‘A’ as a device of self-reference, but ascribes ‘A’ on a purely perceptual basis.

		The article might be good food for your more philosophically and traditionally minded charges.
