PARACONSISTENT NEWSLETTER - WINTER 2012 "We grap exactly the understanding of a concept or the meaning of a word only by the knowledge of the opposite concept or of the antonym word. Any determination is negation, but reciprocally any negation is determination."
Guess who said that and win free vacations to the island of inconsistencies! Decision between winners will be made on the basis of further information: title of the book and page number. The winner, if any, will be announced in the next newsletter. The quotation of the last newsletter was: "That axiom of metaphysicians which is termed the principle of contradiction, and which affirms that it is impossible for any being to possess a quality, and at the same time not to possess it, is a consequence of the fundamental law of thought, whose expression is xx = x." The author is George Boole (1815-1864)http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_boole The laws of thought, 1854, Chapter 3 The winner is David Makinsonhttps://sites.google.com/site/davidcmakinson/ We wish him happy holidays in the island of inconsistencies. Below he will find a list of writings he can bring with him to relax between sea and sun. And next a list of interesting events he may want to go after his contradictory holidays. ************************************************************* RECENT PAPERS OF INTEREST FOR PARACONSISTENT LOGICIANS Ofer Arieli, Arnon Avron and Anna Zamansky Ideal Paraconsistent Logics Studia Logica, 99 (2011), 31-60http://www.springerlink.com/content/u26164416w3u7627/ Valentin Bazhanov The dawn of paraconsistency: Russia's logical thought in the turn of XX century Manuscrito, 34 (2011), pp.89-98http://www.cle.unicamp.br/manuscrito/ Manueal Busaniche and Roberto Cignoli Remarks on an algebraic semantics for paraconsistent Nelson's logic Manuscrito, 34 (2011), pp.99-114http://www.cle.unicamp.br/manuscrito/ Didier Dubois and Henri Prade From Blanché’s Hexagonal Organization of Concepts to Formal Concept Analysis and Possibility Theory Logica Universalis - online firsthttp://www.springerlink.com/content/y5k3751v81g13n6v/ Paolo Gentilini Proof theory and mathematical meaning of paraconsistent C-systems Journal of Applied Logic, 9 (2011), pp.171–202http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1570868311000309 Sergey Pavlov The Logic with Truth and Falsehood Operators from a Point of View of Universal Logic Logica Universalis, 5 (2011), pp.319-325http://www.springerlink.com/content/l857021078074221/ Graham Priest Against against nonbeing The Review of Symbolic Logic 4 (2011) pp.237-253http://journals.cambridge.org/action/displayAbstract?fromPage=online&aid=8308792&fulltextType=RA&fileId=S1755020310000353 Andrew Schuman Two Squares of Opposition: for Analytic and Synthetic Propositions Bulletin of the Section of Logic 40 (2011), pp.165-178http://www.filozof.uni.lodz.pl/bulletin/ Hans Smessaert The Classical Aristotelian Hexagon Versus the Modern Duality Hexagon Logica Universalis - online firsthttp://www.springerlink.com/content/wpw6350x37254272/ Valdimir Vasyukov Paraconsistency in Categories: Case of Relevance Logic Studia Logica, 98 (2011), pp.429-443http://www.springerlink.com/content/t7k3280507522622/ Paul Weingartner Matrix-based logic for avoiding paradoxes and its paraconsistent alternative Manuscrito, 34 (2011), pp.365-388http://www.cle.unicamp.br/manuscrito/ ***************************************************************** RECENT BOOKS OF INTEREST FOR PARACONSISTENT LOGICIANS Jean-Yves Beziau and Marcelo Coniglio (eds) Logic without Frontiers Festschrift for Walter Alexandre Carnielli on the occasion of his 60th birthday Papers by Smullyan, Hintikka, Fitting, Mortensen, Brady, Gabbay, etc...
