Logical constants

open access: yes, 1980
[Abridged abstract] The goal is to give structural proof-theoretical analyses of logical constants, and thereby provide a criterion for what a logical constant is. Another goal is to illustrate the thesis that structural assumptions of logic are basic and that alternative logics (later called substructural logics) differ from each other only in their ...

Semantic Minimalism for Logical Constants

open access: yesLogique et Analyse, 2014
In [31], I defended a minimalist account of meaning for logical constants as a way to ward off Quine’s meaning variance charge against deviant logics. Its key idea was that some deviant propositional logics share with classical logic the operational meanings of all their connectives, as encoded in their sequent calculus operational rules, yet validate ...

The Pragmatics of the Logical Constants

2009
Abstract The logical constants are technical terms, invented and precisely defined by logicians for the purpose of producing rigorous formal proofs. Mathematics virtually exhausts the domain of deductive reasoning of any complexity, and it is there that the benefits of this refined form of language are felt.

The accident of logical constants [PDF]

open access: yesThought: A Journal of Philosophy, 2020
Work on the nature and scope of formal logic has focused unduly on the distinction between logical and extra-logical vocabulary; which argument forms a logical theory countenances depends not only on its stock of logical terms, but also on its range of grammatical categories and modes of composition. Furthermore, there is a sense in which logical terms

Logical pluralism and the meaning of the logical constants.

open access: yes, 2014
© 2014 Dr. Bogdan Augustin Dicher ; This thesis is an investigation into logical pluralism. The main question it addresses is whether pluralism about logical consequence is compatible with the invariance of the logical constants’ meaning across different consequence relations. I begin by arguing that a model-theoretic approach to logical consequence is

Redefining logical constants as inference markers [PDF]

open access: yesLinguistic Review, 2012
There is currently no universally accepted general de nition of logical constanthood. With a view to addressing this issue, we follow a pragmatist ratio- nale, according to which, some notion can be identi ed as a logical constant by considering the way ...

Interpretation and the Logical Constants

open access: yes, 2007
May the theory of radical interpretation developed by Donald Davidson on the basis of Quine's arguments for the indeterminacy of translation help fix the meaning of the logical constants? In particular, may the theory exclude ways of conferring meaning on the constants which, although developed within the Davidsonian framework, would lead to unexpected
