5. Theory of Logic / A. Overview of Logic / 3. Value of Logic
13378
|
It is a mistake to think that the logic developed for mathematics can clarify language and philosophy [Jubien]
|
5. Theory of Logic / B. Logical Consequence / 2. Types of Consequence
10259
|
The two standard explanations of consequence are semantic (in models) and deductive [Shapiro]
|
5. Theory of Logic / B. Logical Consequence / 5. Modus Ponens
10257
|
Intuitionism only sanctions modus ponens if all three components are proved [Shapiro]
|
5. Theory of Logic / C. Ontology of Logic / 1. Ontology of Logic
10253
|
Either logic determines objects, or objects determine logic, or they are separate [Shapiro]
|
5. Theory of Logic / D. Assumptions for Logic / 2. Excluded Middle
10251
|
The law of excluded middle might be seen as a principle of omniscience [Shapiro]
|
5. Theory of Logic / E. Structures of Logic / 2. Logical Connectives / a. Logical connectives
10212
|
Classical connectives differ from their ordinary language counterparts; '∧' is timeless, unlike 'and' [Shapiro]
|
5. Theory of Logic / E. Structures of Logic / 5. Functions in Logic
10209
|
A function is just an arbitrary correspondence between collections [Shapiro]
|
5. Theory of Logic / F. Referring in Logic / 1. Naming / a. Names
13402
|
We only grasp a name if we know whether to apply it when the bearer changes [Jubien]
|
13405
|
The baptiser picks the bearer of a name, but social use decides the category [Jubien]
|
5. Theory of Logic / F. Referring in Logic / 1. Naming / c. Names as referential
13399
|
Examples show that ordinary proper names are not rigid designators [Jubien]
|
5. Theory of Logic / F. Referring in Logic / 2. Descriptions / b. Definite descriptions
13398
|
We could make a contingent description into a rigid and necessary one by adding 'actual' to it [Jubien]
|
5. Theory of Logic / G. Quantification / 3. Objectual Quantification
13392
|
Philosophers reduce complex English kind-quantifiers to the simplistic first-order quantifier [Jubien]
|
5. Theory of Logic / G. Quantification / 6. Plural Quantification
10268
|
Maybe plural quantifiers should be understood in terms of classes or sets [Shapiro]
|
5. Theory of Logic / I. Semantics of Logic / 4. Satisfaction
10235
|
A sentence is 'satisfiable' if it has a model [Shapiro]
|
5. Theory of Logic / J. Model Theory in Logic / 1. Logical Models
10239
|
The central notion of model theory is the relation of 'satisfaction' [Shapiro]
|
10240
|
Model theory deals with relations, reference and extensions [Shapiro]
|
5. Theory of Logic / J. Model Theory in Logic / 2. Isomorphisms
10214
|
Theory ontology is never complete, but is only determined 'up to isomorphism' [Shapiro]
|
10238
|
The set-theoretical hierarchy contains as many isomorphism types as possible [Shapiro]
|
5. Theory of Logic / J. Model Theory in Logic / 3. Löwenheim-Skolem Theorems
10234
|
Any theory with an infinite model has a model of every infinite cardinality [Shapiro]
