  • Interpreted Languages and Compositionality

    de Marcus Kracht ...
    Series series Social Sciences (R0)
    This book argues that languages are composed of sets of ‘signs’, rather than ‘strings’. This notion, first posited by de Saussure in the early 20th century, has for decades been neglected by linguists, particularly following Chomsky’s heavy critiques of the 1950s. Yet since the emergence of formal semantics in the 1970s, the issue of compositionality has gained traction in the theoretical debate, ... Leer más

  • Paraconsistency: Logic and Applications

    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    A logic is called 'paraconsistent' if it rejects the rule called 'ex contradictione quodlibet', according to which any conclusion follows from inconsistent premises. While logicians have proposed many technically developed paraconsistent logical systems and contemporary philosophers like Graham Priest have advanced the view that some contradictions can be true, and advocated a paraconsistent logic ...

  • Logical Form

    Between Logic and Natural Language

    de Andrea Iacona ...
    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    Logical form has always been a prime concern for philosophers belonging to the analytic tradition.

This book focuses on the very idea of logical form, which is directly relevant to any principled ... Leer más

  • Doing Worlds with Words

    Formal Semantics without Formal Metaphysics

    de J. Peregrin ...
    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    Doing Worlds with Words throws light on the problem of meaning as the meeting point of linguistics, logic and philosophy, and critically assesses the possibilities and limitations of elucidating the nature of meaning by means of formal logic, model theory and model-theoretical semantics. The main thrust of the book is to show that it is misguided to understand model theory metaphysically and so to ... Leer más

  • The Logic of Metaphor

    Analogous Parts of Possible Worlds

    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    Metaphors and Logic Metaphors are among the most vigorous offspring of the creative mind; but their vitality springs from the fact that they are logical organisms in the ecology of l- guage. I aim to use logical techniques to analyze the meanings of metaphors. My goal here is to show how contemporary formal semantics can be extended to handle metaphorical utterances. What distinguishes this work ... Leer más

  • The Nature of Truth

    An updated approach to the meaning of truth ascriptions

    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    The book offers a characterization of the meaning and role of the notion of truth in natural languages and an explanation of why, in spite of the big amount of proposals about truth, this task has proved to be resistant to the different analyses. The general thesis of the book is that defining truth is perfectly possible and that the average educated philosopher of language has the tools to do it. ... Leer más

    Victor Dudman's revolutionary English Grammar brings grammar and logic together by conceiving grammar as 'the necessary preliminary to logic'.

  • Lingua Universalis vs. Calculus Ratiocinator:

    An Ultimate Presupposition of Twentieth-Century Philosophy

    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    R. G. Collingwood saw one of the main tasks of philosophers and of historians of human thought in uncovering what he called the ultimate presuppositions of different thinkers, of different philosophical movements and of entire eras of intellectual history. He also noted that such ultimate presuppositions usually remain tacit at first, and are discovered only by subsequent reflection. Collingwood ... Leer más

    Foundations and Applications of Transparent Intensional Logic

    Series Libro 17 - Logic, Epistemology, and the Unity of Science
    This book is about Transparent Intensional Logic, the brainchild of Pavel Tichý. Three books and around 100 papers on Transparent Intensional Logic have till now seen the light of day since the mid-1960s. So why a book of more than 500 pages now? For two reasons. Firstly, Transparent Intensional Logic is a theory without something like a textbook. Now this is not an actual textbook, if a textbook ... Leer más

  • Truth and Its Nature (if Any)

    Edición de J. Peregrin ...
    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    The question how to turn the principles implicitly governing the concept of truth into an explicit definition (or explication) of the concept hence coalesced with the question how to get a finite grip on the infinity of T-sentences. Tarski's famous and ingenious move was to introduce a new concept, satisfaction, which could be, on the one hand, recursively defined, and which, on the other hand, ... Leer más
