    Paraconsistance et quasi-vérité
    with Itala Maria Loffredo D’Ottaviano
    Archives de Philosophie 89 (2): 123-141. 2026.
    Newton da Costa, par ses contributions théoriques essentielles, originales et innovantes, se distingue comme le premier grand logicien et philosophe brésilien. Dans cet article, nous analysons la formation de sa pensée, l’établissement de sa vision pragmatique et pluraliste de la logique, la création et le développement des logiques paraconsistantes, la théorie de la quasi-vérité et les répercussions de ses contributions logico-philosophiques.

    Relative Contradictoriness
    Logica Universalis 19 (4): 553-583. 2025.
    Our thesis about contradictoriness is a threefold one: it is a _relative_, theory-dependent concept; it is a synonym of _absurdity_, which is a constant of falsity; it is to be used as a _definiens_ of sentential negation and truth-values, contrary to its usual presentation. First of all, we review both the motivation of such a thesis and its philosophical consequences about the nature of negation and truth-values. Then we propose a formal background encompassing the relativity of contradictorin…Read more

    Vasiliev’s Ideas for Non-Aristotelian Logics: Insight Towards Paraconsistency
    with Itala Maria Loffredo D’Ottaviano
    In Dmitry Zaitsev & Vladimir Markin (eds.), The Logical Legacy of Nikolai Vasiliev and Modern Logic, Springer Verlag. pp. 59-77. 2017.
    In this paper we analyze some of Vasiliev’s main theses on non-Aristotelian logics, in order to show that some of his ideas do indeed match those of present-day paraconsistent logic. Considered from a historical perspective, Vasiliev’s contribution to the history of logic has great intentional value, and his work contains many new ideas that could be extended by others in various ways.

    Aristotle’s Theory of Deduction and Paraconsistency
    with Itala M. Loffredo D'Ottaviano
    Principia: An International Journal of Epistemology 14 (1). 2010.
    In the Organon Aristotle describes some deductive schemata in which inconsistencies do not entail the trivialization of the logical theory involved. This thesis is corroborated by three different theoretical topics by him discussed, which are presented in this paper. We analyse inference schema used by Aristotle in the Protrepticus and the method of indirect demonstration for categorical syllogisms. Both methods exemplify as Aristotle employs classical reductio ad absurdum strategies. Following,…Read more

    Aristotle's Theory of Deduction and Paraconsistency
    with Ítala M. L. D.?Ottaviano
    Principia: An International Journal of Epistemology 14 (1): 71-97. 2010.
    No Órganon Aristóteles descreve alguns esquemas dedutivos nos quais a presença de inconsistências não acarreta a trivialização da teoria lógica envolvida. Esta tese é corroborada por três diferentes situações teóricas estudadas por ele, as quais são apresentadas neste trabalho. Analizamos o esquema de inferência utilizado por Aristóteles no Protrepticus e o método de demonstração indireta para os silogismos categóricos. Ambos os métodos exemplificam como Aristóteles emprega estratégias de reduçã…Read more
