Abstract
I wish to take issue with this statement, and will show (i) that the paradoxes not only arise in ordinary language, but that the only genuine is a linguistic one based on an analysis of the term 'infinite'; (ii) that this analysis and this are not recent innovations of Oxbridge philosophy but have a long tradition; (iii) that there are other legitimate interests in the paradoxes--what some wish to call another solution ; (iv) that these interests or solutions are not in conflict unless Philosophical Imperialism enters the picture. By Philosophical Imperialism I mean that all too common tendency to take philosophical methods, doctrines or results from one area of philosophy and uncritically and heavy-handedly use them as applicable to or normative for the whole. I call this Another Round With Zeno
