Abstract
In the article, we consider three representatives of the semantic tradition which are committed to varying degrees of the syntactic tendency to treat language as a universal medium. We show that even in their works, semantic tendencies associated with the understanding of language as calculus arise and gain strength. The sequence "Russell-Wittgenstein-Carnap" (here we mean the early Carnap) reflects the historical stages of the formation of the semantic position under the influence of mathematical logic.
