To change this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used: {{Philosophical logic | state = collapsed}} will show the template collapsed, i.e. hidden apart from its title bar. {{Philosophical logic | state = expanded}} will show the template expanded, i.e. fully visible.
[[Category:Logic templates]] to the <includeonly> section at the bottom of that page. Otherwise, add <noinclude>[[Category:Logic templates]]</noinclude> to the end of the template code, making sure it starts on the same line as the code's last character.
[6] [7] [8] [1] The current article discusses only the narrow conception of philosophical logic. In this sense, it forms one area of the philosophy of logic. [1] Central to philosophical logic is an understanding of what logic is and what role philosophical logics play in it. Logic can be defined as the study of valid inferences.
Understood in a narrow sense, philosophical logic is the area of logic that studies the application of logical methods to philosophical problems, often in the form of extended logical systems like modal logic, which forms one field of inquiry within the philosophy of logic.
[1] [2] Like many other disciplines, logic involves various philosophical presuppositions which are addressed by the philosophy of logic. [3] The philosophy of logic can be understood in analogy to other discipline-specific branches of philosophy: just like the philosophy of science investigates philosophical problems raised by science, so the ...
Logic and rationality have each been taken as fundamental concepts in philosophy. They are not the same thing. Philosophical rationalism in its most extreme form is the doctrine that knowledge can ultimately be founded on pure reason, while logicism is the doctrine that mathematical concepts, among others, are reducible to pure logic.
Never mind; I misread the category it's in. However, the template should probably be split into mathematical logic and philosophical logic, which have very little in common. — Arthur Rubin 21:34, 19 August 2009 (UTC) I agree with the math/philosophy split. Templates are there to help people reading one page read other related pages.
Logic is the formal science of using reason and is considered a branch of both philosophy and mathematics and to a lesser extent computer science. Logic investigates and classifies the structure of statements and arguments, both through the study of formal systems of inference and the study of arguments in natural language .
