This kind of reasoning is motivated by the fact that in real life people do not always have sufficient information to make a safe step towards the conclusion; instead, they often jump to conclusions by applying general, defeas ...

Of course, both extracted the idea from Brouwer’s work. In any case, ...

In general, however, this produces a very large number of propositional formulae (perhaps inf ...

This paper is a continuation of an on-going project aiming to get a unified semantic theory and understanding of analytic Gentzen-type systems and the phenomenon of strong cut-admissibility in them.

History of logic

The history of logic is the study of the development of the science of valid inference (logic). Formal logic was developed in ancient times in China, India, and Greece. Greek logic, particularly Aristotelian logic, found wide application and acceptance in science and mathematics.Aristotle's logic was further developed by Islamic and Christian philosophers in the Middle Ages, reaching a high point in the mid-fourteenth century. The period between the fourteenth century and the beginning of the nineteenth century was largely one of decline and neglect, and is regarded as barren by at least one historian of logic.Logic was revived in the mid-nineteenth century, at the beginning of a revolutionary period when the subject developed into a rigorous and formalistic discipline whose exemplar was the exact method of proof used in mathematics. The development of the modern ""symbolic"" or ""mathematical"" logic during this period is the most significant in the two-thousand-year history of logic, and is arguably one of the most important and remarkable events in human intellectual history.Progress in mathematical logic in the first few decades of the twentieth century, particularly arising from the work of Gödel and Tarski, had a significant impact on analytic philosophy and philosophical logic, particularly from the 1950s onwards, in subjects such as modal logic, temporal logic, deontic logic, and relevance logic.
