- Summary:
- Moczanow (logic and methodology of science, Rzeszow U., Poland) points out an unbridgeable gap between the notion of quantificational truth expressed by German mathematician and philosopher Gottlob Frege (1848-1925), and the notion of reference. He discusses the favored distinction, the principles of identity and its instances, reference and causality, Peirce's categories and the transcendental logic of quantification, and Gödel's incompleteness theorem and the downfall of rationalism: vindication of Kant's synthetic a priori.
