Abstract

The Vienna Circle and the work of Brentano, Meinong and Husserl were only indirectly related and mainly by opposition. The present chapter is devoted to Mach, Boltzmann and Mauthner, three precursors of the Circle, though quite unequally treated by the group. Mach was extolled, while the other two were practically ignored.
