von , , , ,

In addition to the analysis of Wolff‹s language in this work, there are separate indexes in which the philosophical disciplines mentioned by Wolff, among other things, have been compiled. These also list his self-references which pervade the text and give it extraordinarily great depth of argumentation. Based on the material made available in the index, the introduction makes some deductions in regard to Wolff‹s mainly philosophical intentions, thus showing how the studies of language statistics can be of use for the consolidation of the interpretation as well as for the interpretation of new aspects of a philosophical work.
