  1. Filum Cogitationis. Remarks on Leibnizian Projects of a Universal Language.Halina Święczkowska - 2020 - Studies in Logic, Grammar and Rhetoric 62 (1):113-136.
    This essay is an attempt to offer at least a partial answer to the question concerning Leibniz's motivation for the need to create a universal language. It is relevant, among other things, due to Leibniz's claim which contradicts the idea of a universal language, in which he clearly stresses that “every language, even the poorest one, can express everything”, as well as owing to Leibniz's historical contribution to the idea of formalization and to the mechanization of the reasoning processes. This (...)

  • In how far is science accumulative?W. A. Verloren van Themaat - 1986 - Zeitschrift Für Allgemeine Wissenschaftstheorie 17 (1):119-130.
    Der Streit darüber, ob es objektive Wahrheitskriterien gibt, wird oft mit der Frage vermengt, ob Wissenschaft immer fortschreite. Vor allem Popper in "Objective Knowledge" unterstellt in starkem Maße einen allgemeinen Trend der Wissenschaft zum Fortschritt. In diesem Beitrag wird gezeigt, daß Wissen verloren gehen kann: 1. Weil es nicht aufgezeichnet wird; 2. weil die Dokumente, in denen es niedergelegt wurde, verloren gehen; 3. weil das Wissen um die Sprache der Dokumente, in denen es niedergelegt wurde, verloren gegangen ist, 4. weil (...)

  • 1st World Logic Day: 14 January 2019.Jean-Yves Beziau - 2019 - Logica Universalis 13 (1):1-20.
    We assess the celebration of the 1st World Logic Day which recently took place all over the world. We then answer the question Why a World Logic Day? in two steps. First we explain why promoting logic, emphasizing its fundamental importance and its relations with many other fields. Secondly we examine the sense of a one-day celebration: how this can help reinforcing logic day-to-day and why logic deserves it. We make a comparison with other existing one-day celebrations. We end by (...)

  • MANY 1 - A Transversal Imaginative Journey across the Realm of Mathematics.Jean-Yves Beziau - 2017 - Journal of the Indian Council of Philosophical Research 34 (2):259-287.
    We discuss the many aspects and qualities of the number one: the different ways it can be represented, the different things it may represent. We discuss the ordinal and cardinal natures of the one, its algebraic behaviour as a neutral element and finally its role as a truth-value in logic.

  • Louis Couturat, modern logic, and the international auxiliary language.Başak Aray - 2019 - British Journal for the History of Philosophy 27 (5):979-1001.
    ABSTRACTTo some extent, the early twentieth century revival of universal languages was the work of logicians and mathematicians. Pioneers of modern logic such as Frege, Russell and Peano wanted to overcome the diversity and deficiencies of natural languages. Through the rigour of formal logic, they aimed at providing scientific thinking with a reliable medium free from the ambiguity and inconsistencies of ordinary language. This article shows some interconnections between modern logic and the search for a common tongue that would unite (...)
