Abstract

The possible worlds semantics is articulated as one of the most relevant logical and philosophical theories of our time. The famous possible worlds form and have been part of the philosophical jargon of authors of the so-called analytical tendency in the last decades. It has also been a theory suitable for the treatment and approach of many topics and problems that have afflicted philosophers of all time. In this paper, we will focus on the origin, preparation and consolidation of PWS and its central notions by hand of some of its main representatives.
