60The Early Formation of Modal Logic and its Significance: A Historical Note on Quine, Carnap, and a Bit of ChurchHistory and Philosophy of Logic 39 (3): 289-304. 2018.The aim of the paper is to show that W. V. O. Quine's animadversions against modal logic did not get the same attention that is considered to be the case nowadays. The community of logicians focused solely on the technical aspects of C. I. Lewis’ systems and did not take Quine's arguments and remarks seriously—or at least seriously enough to respond. In order to assess Quine's place in the history, however, his relation to Carnap is considered since their notorious break was about the status of …Read more

21Unifying Historical Perspectives (review)The Berlin Review of Books 2014. 2014.Greg Frost-Arnold’s book is a highly elegant edition and commentary of Carnap’s notes, claiming just as much as he is warranted on the basis of the manuscript and other relevant texts, and formulating his scholarly assumptions very carefully. Along the way he tries to unify the three historiographical strategies: narrative, argumentative and micro-historical.

834Quine and Quantified Modal Logic – Against the Received ViewOrganon F: Medzinárodný Časopis Pre Analytickú Filozofiu 22 (4): 518-545. 2015.The textbook-like history of analytic philosophy is a history of myths, re-ceived views and dogmas. Though mainly the last few years have witnessed a huge amount of historical work that aimed to reconsider our narratives of the history of ana-lytic philosophy there is still a lot to do. The present study is meant to present such a micro story which is still quite untouched by historians. According to the received view Kripke has defeated all the arguments of Quine against quantified modal logic …Read more
