STRAWSON'S CONSTRUCTION OF NO-SPACE WORLD AS ANEXAMPLE OF REVISIONARY METAPHYSICS

The article presents a reconstruction of one ofP.F. Strawson's arguments for his picture of our thought and language. Claiming that the genuinephilosophical inquiry of «our conceptual scheme» must be descriptive in character Strawson leaves asecondary role to revisionary metaphysics. In what this role consists may be explained by studying ofStrawson's thought-experiment known as No-Space world model.
