\anrede{Dear Quine,}

\haupttext{My best thanks for your kind letter of June\,19th. I enclose the copy with my corrections, and you see that your German
is becoming very good; the letter contains only very few mistakes.

Thanks for your suggestions concerning the titles of my courses. As to the elementary one, Nagel\IN{\nagel} wrote me that there are
difficulties in translating ``wissenschaftliche Philosophie''; therefore he proposes ``analytic philosophy''. But I
should not like this title very much. Would you think that ``Introduction into Scientific Philosophy'' would not be quite
suitable? Does it sound for American ears as meaning ``Philosophy of Natural Sciences'', which of course would be --
though not quite false -- nevertheless too narrow. Or how would you translate ``wissenschaftliche Philosophie''?

I got your letter during a travel. Therefore I have sent the offprints to the addresses suggested by you only now. I am
obliged for your suggestions.

On August\,1rst we shall start once more, this time for a longer travel. During August we shall be in Tyrol, together
with Woodger\IN{\woodger} and his wife\IN{\woodgerfrau} and 4 children\IN{\woodgerkinder}, and Feigl\IN{\feigl}. W[oodger]\IN{\woodger} is trying with good success to apply logistics to biology, as you
know perhaps. Feigl\IN{\feigl} is coming from Iowa to Europe for two months only. At the beginning of September I shall visit
friends in Munich, and then I shall go to Paris for our Congress\II{\pariserkongress}, while Ina\IN{\ina} will visit friends in North Italy and in
Dresden.

Tom Chambers\IN{\chamberstom}, your friend, has been here. He visited us twice and Ina\IN{\ina} spent one afternoon with him for sight-seeing.

With best wishes to Naomi\IN{\quinefrau} for the third Quine\IN{\quinekind} from both of us -- Ina\IN{\ina} thanks for Naomi's\IN{\quinefrau} letter and intends to reply from
Tyrol -- and cordially regards to you,}

\grussformel{Yours\\
R. Carnap}
