Transcendental syntax 2.0
نویسنده
چکیده
How come that finite language can produce certainty — at least a sufficiently certain certainty, sometimes apodictic — in the presence of infinity? The answer can by no means be found in external reality, quite the contrary: it seems that the very purpose of semantics is to make this question untractable with the help of an ad hoc analytical newspeak in which one cannot even formulate the above question. Transcendental syntax comes from the constatation that logic is better off when there is no A reality B at all and thus restores the priority of syntax over anything else. What follows is the present state of a new programme.

Semantics is very valuable tool: nothing is better than a good model-theoretic argument....
متن کاملTranscendental syntax II: non deterministic case
Using a non deterministic analytics, it is possible to expand the autonomous explanation of logic, a.k.a. transcendental syntax, to full logic, i.e., first order predicate calculus with equality. This paper concentrates on additives, intuitionistic negation and on a paradoxically unexplored territory: predicates (by opposition to propositions).
متن کاملA Formalization of Kant's Transcendental Logic
Although Kant envisaged a prominent role for logic in the argumentative structure of his Critique of pure reason [12], logicians and philosophers have generally judged Kant’s logic negatively. What Kant called ‘general’ or ‘formal’ logic has been dismissed as a fairly arbitrary subsystem of first order logic, and what he called ‘transcendental logic’ is considered to be not a logic at all: no s...

متن کاملStress reduction programs in patients with elevated blood pressure: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Substantial evidence indicates that psychosocial stress contributes to hypertension and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Previous meta-analyses of stress reduction and high blood pressure (BP) were outdated and/or methodologically limited. Therefore, we conducted an updated systematic review of the published literature and identified 107 studies on stress reduction and BP. Seventeen trials with 23...
