Beyond The Tractatus Wars: The New Wittgenstein Debate
ISBN: 9780415874397 / Angielski / Twarda / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Years have passed since Cora Diamond and James Conant turned Wittgenstein scholarship upside down with the program of 'resolute' reading. This approach remains at the center of the debate about Wittgenstein and his philosophy, and this text draws together thinking of the leading Tractatarian scholars and promising newcomers. Showcasing one piece alternately from each camp, Beyond the Tractatus Wars pairs newly commissioned pieces addressing differing views on how to understand early Wittgenstein, providing for the first time an arena in which the debate between strong resolutists, mild...

The Logic of Essentialism: An Interpretation of Aristotle's Modal Syllogistic
ISBN: 9780792339878 / Angielski / Twarda / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Aristotle's modal syllogistic has been an object of study ever since the time of Theophrastus; but these studies (apart from an intense flowering in the Middle Ages) have been somewhat desultory. Remarkably, in the 1990s several new lines of research have appeared, with series of original publications by Fred Johnson, Richard Patterson and Ulrich Nortmann. Johnson presented for the first time a formal semantics adequate to a de re reading of the apodeictic syllogistic; this was based on a simple intuition linking the modal syllogistic to Aristotelian metaphysics. Nortmann developed an...

Modalities and Multimodalities
ISBN: 9789048137626 / Angielski / Miękka / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the last two decades modal logic has undergone an explosive growth, to thepointthatacompletebibliographyofthisbranchoflogic, supposingthat someone were capable to compile it, would ?ll itself a ponderous volume. What is impressive in the growth of modal logic has not been so much the quick accumulation of results but the richness of its thematic dev- opments. In the 1960s, when Kripke semantics gave new credibility to the logic of modalities? which was already known and appreciated in the Ancient and Medieval times? no one could have foreseen that in a short time modal logic would become a...

Natural Deduction, Hybrid Systems and Modal Logics
ISBN: 9789048187843 / Angielski / Twarda / 492 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A good title should be informative enough to illuminate a potential reader on the content of a book. We hope that the present title gives at least some hints of what this book is about. The notion of natural deduction or modal logic are rather well known, but the notion of hybrid system certainly needs some explanation. In short, this study may be seen as a kind of search for good deductive systems. We think of systems good in practice which may be applied with easenotonlybywelltrainedlogiciansbutalso, forexample, byphilosophers who need handy deductive tools accompanying their analyses. In...

Understanding St. Thomas on Analogy
ISBN: 9781449977672 / Angielski / Miękka / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is a reprint of the dissertation that won the 2009 Prize of the Pontifical Academies. The analogy of names is not one of those topics that is important because it is a grand conclusion to intensive philosophical or theological research. Rather, analogy is important because it stands, explicitly or implicitly, at the very beginning of all work in philosophy and theology. For centuries, the thoughts of St. Thomas on analogy, which are found in texts scattered throughout his works, were considered to have been aptly grouped and articulated by Cardinal Cajetan. Most works on analogy in...
