\brief{Rudolf Carnap an Charles Morris, 29. Juni 1934}{Juni 1934}

%June, 29, 1934.

\anrede{Dear Professor Morris,}

\haupttext{I suppose you will be coming to Vienna shortly. Thanks for your letter of June\,3, and especially for your book ``Six
Theories of Mind''\IW{} which I have since received. I have read the last chapter with great interest; and in your remarks on
Dewey's\IN{\dewey} and Mead's\IN{\mead} views I believe to find some reflex of your own opinion. I am looking forward with great interest to
our conversations and it will be of especially high value for me then to get a more systematic impression of your views.

I have ordered a copy of the ``Syntax''\IC{\logischesyntax} to be sent to your address c.o. Schlick\IN{\schlick}.

Our summer plans so far are still quite uncertain. It may be that I shall have to go to Munich in the second half of
July in order to visit some relations; and perhaps in this case we shall not go to the mountains. In this case I shall
endeavor to be back here at the beginning of August. Anyhow I will write you as soon as I know more definitely.

I am glad that you have had information from Feigl\IN{\feigl} about Vienna. Therefore a few hints may suffice.

If you are interested in Wittgensteins\IN{\wittgenstein} recent development, \uline{Waismann}\IN{\waismann} as well as Schlick\IN{\schlick} may be able to give you
information.

\uline{Hahn}\IN{\hahnhans} and \uline{Menger}\IN{\menger} are especially interested in the logical foundations of mathematics. Perhaps they may be inclined to
discuss your views about symbolism. If \uline{Gödel}\IN{\goedel} who is now in America will return to Vienna in July, I think it could be of
interest for you to speak with him. In my opinion he is an extraordinarily clever young men.

\uline{Kaufmann}\IN{\kaufmannfelix}, who is occupied in philosophy of the law, epistemology and logic, is a pupil of Husserl\IN{\husserl}, but tries to combine
some of our ``Viennese'' views with those of H[usserl]\IN{\husserl}.

\uline{Popper}\IN{\popper} seems to be very intelligent. He is very young and of rather lively temperament. I like to discuss with him, but
I must confess, it is often a little exhausting. His considerations concern especially the process of knowledge and
verification.

Perhaps it may be useful for you to make the acquaintance of \uline{Kraft}\IN{\kraftvictor}. He is not especially original in his views but very
clear; he would be able to give you a clear account of the development of our principal views. Besides that, being
librarian in the University Library\II{\universitaetsbibliothekwien}, he will be able and ready to facilitate your working there.~\neueseite{}

Perhaps you will also meet the Countess von \uline{Zeppelin}\IN{\zeppelin}, an English lady, a pupil of Whitehead\IN{\whitehead}; she will now begin to
translate my ``Syntax''\IC{\logischesyntaxenglisch} into English.

Very sincerely} 

\grussformel{yours\\
