In the article of 1965 Are logical truths analytic? Hintikka deals with the problem of establishing whether the logical truths of first-order logic are analytic or synthetic. In order to provide an answer to this issue, Hintikka firstly distinguishes two different notions of analyticity, and then he shows that the sentences of first-order logic are analytic in one sense, but synthetic in anothe...

It is often assumed that there is a close connection between Quine’s criticism of the analytic/synthetic distinction, in ‘Two dogmas of empiricism’ and onwards, and his thesis of the indeterminacy of translation, in Word and Object and onwards. Sometimes this is just assumed, since both are criticisms of traditional or naive concepts of linguistic meaning. Sometimes there is an argument to supp...

In the paper I prove that there are two squares of opposition. The unconventional one is built up for synthetic propositions. There a, i are contrary, a, o (resp. e, i) are contradictory, e, o are subcontrary, a, e (resp. i, o) are said to stand in the subalternation.

we have applied an automatic interpretation method of potential data called an-eul in unexploded ordnance (uxo) prospective which is indeed a combination of the analytic signal and the euler deconvolution approaches. the method can be applied for both magnetic and gravity data as well for gradient surveys based upon the concept of the structural index (si) of a potential anomaly which is relate...
