    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.

    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.
