Produktbeschreibung

Aristotle's 'Organon' in Old and New Logic: 1800 -1950 explores the reception and interpretation of Aristotle's logic in a time period which was crucial for the development of modern logic. Authors investigate how Aristotle's logic played a role in both the pre-mathematical or "old" logic and in the several strands which would constitute a new algebraic or formal-semantic logic. The volume also includes a translation of Olga Hahn's path-breaking dissertation, which sought to integrate Aristotelian strategies of perfection into an algebraic representation of the syllogism. This in-depth study of Aristotelianism covers logic in Kant and Hegel, together with the problems and projects of interpreting Aristotle in the new logic after Boole and Frege. Examination of modern debates concerning induction and abduction offers further insight into Aristotelian logic during the period. By filling gaps in our understanding of Aristotelian logic, this book not only provides a missing link in 21st-century studies of the history of Aristotelianism, but also sheds light on ancient logic's role in the formation of modern logical theory.
