Scheinprobleme : ein explikativer Versuch Explikation Sinnlosigkeit Wiener Kreis Rekonstruktion Formale Sprache Natürliche Sprache Schein Problem Begriffsanalyse Logische Analyse conceptual analysis logical analysis The traditional use of the expression pseudoproblem is analysed in order to clarify the talk of pseudoproblems and related phenomena. The goal is to produce a philosophically serviceable terminology that stays true to its historical roots. This explicative study is inspired by and makes use of the method of logical reconstruction. Since pseudoproblems are usually expressed by pseudoquestions a formal language of questions is presented as a possible reconstruction language for alleged pseudoproblems. The study yields an informal theory of pseudoproblems whose presuppositions are critically investigated right away. At least one result remains: Claims of pseudoproblemship and their refutations must not be voiced casually they are to be relativized and need substantial interpretive effort.
