9Truth and Bivalence in Aristotle. An Investigation into the Structure of SayingIn N. Öffenberger & A. Vigo (eds.), Zur modernen Deutung der Aristotelischen Logik, G. Olms. 2014.The aim of this paper is rather modest: we do not intend to reconstruct Aristotle’s theory of truth (although we are convinced that there is such a thing), and we will not try to settle the issue concerning Bivalence in Aristotle. We merely want, on the one hand, to argue for the consistency between the main Aristotelian texts on truth and a possible rejection of Bivalence; and on the other hand, to investigate the conditions of a possible counterexample to Bivalence. The motivation for this res…Read more

7La búsqueda de la verdad: filosofía y ciencias en Carlos Vaz FerreiraAnuario Filosófico 38 (3): 801-820. 2005.This paper studies the relationship between science and philosophy in the works of Carlos Vaz Ferreira. The idea of “search of truth” is the key to understand the role played by both science and philosophy in human knowledge, and their respective scopes and limits. According to Vaz Ferreira, science and philosophy are not mutually exclusive, but rather complementary; moreover, they do not exhaust the wealth of ways that humans have of accesing reality.

Complexio, Enunciatio, Assensus: The Role of Propositions in Knowledge according to John BuridanIn A. Maierù & L. Valente (eds.), Medieval Theories on Assertive and Non-Assertive Language, Leo S. Olschki. 2004.This paper is an attempt to rethink from two perspectives Buridan’s ideas concerning knowledge: On the one hand, I explore Buridan’s theory of knowledge in the hope that it will shed some light on the intuition that the structure of propositions determines the justification of our beliefs on various different levels. On the other hand, I would like to contribute to demonstrating the consistency of Buridan’s thought,which has been remarked by almost all scholars working on Buridan: in particular…Read more

61The Signification of the Copula in Fernando de Enzinas’ SyncategoremataVivarium 53 (2-4): 405-423. 2015._ Source: _Volume 53, Issue 2-4, pp 405 - 423 This article deals with a brief _difficultas_ in the _Tractatus de compositione propositionis mentalis_ by Fernando de Enzinas: _qualiter copule significent tempus et an copule de presenti et preterito sint synonime_. A progressive determination of the signification of the copula is analysed: first, Enzinas defines his position about the principal syncategorematic signification of the copula; then, he analyses the sense of the consignification of tim…Read more

15La idea de ciencia de Eugenio d'Ors: un enfoque "postpragmático"Anuario Filosófico 40 (89): 389-412. 2007.Eugenio d'Ors develops a non-reductionistic idea of science which contrasts with both the positivist idea of science, as well as with the pragmatist attempt to recover the links between science and life. In addition to the purely rational elements present in science d'Ors also finds certain creative elements, both in the origin of science and in its architecture, which allow him to construct an accurate image of science as a complex human activity. According to this image, science arises from pr…Read more

Time and Propositions in Jerónimo PardoIn I. Angelelli & P. Pérez-Ilzarbe (eds.), Medieval and Renaissance Logic in Spain, G. Olms. pp. 54--251. 2000.From the medieval and post-medieval analyses dealing with propositions and time one gathers that their relation can be considered from various points of view. It could be said that there is not one "time" connected with a proposition, but several "times": following d'Ors, I will distinguish at least three: the time of the utterance, the time of the copula, and the time of truth. These three times of the proposition may or may not coincide. In these pages I propose to examine one of the problems …Read more

84Disputation and Logic in the Medieval Treatises De Modo Opponendi et RespondendiVivarium 49 (1-3): 127-149. 2011.In 1980 L. M. de Rijk edited some texts connected with medieval disputation ( Die mittelaterlichen Traktate De modo opponendi et respondendi ), towards which he showed a strikingly contemptuous attitude. The reason for his contempt was that the treatises did not fit the obligationes and sophismata tradition. In this article I focus on the original version, the Thesaurus Philosophorum , to highlight the distinction of this family of treatises with respect to the “modern“ tradition. First, I study…Read more

37Late Medieval Trinitarian Syllogistics: from the Theological Debates to a Logical TextbookIn A. Schuman (ed.), Logic in Religious Discourse, Ontos Verlag. 2009.Jerónimo Pardo's analysis of the problems raised by some popular trinitarian paralogisms is studied in this paper. The purpose is to show how the notions employed by the theologians in order to solve theological problems were introduced into a textbook on logic to deal with some genuinely logical problems. First, the problem, common to all logical approaches, of achieving a fine-grained analysis of the logical form of syllogistical inferences. Second, the problem, typical of the terminist approa…Read more

The Doctrine of Descent in Jerónimo Pardo: Meaning, Inference, TruthIn I. Angelelli & M. Cerezo (eds.), Studies on the History of Logic, Walter De Gruyter. 1996.The complexity of the scholastic view of descent stems from the attempt to find a reply to three different questions at the same time: those pertaining to the meaning of propositions, the relationships of inference between propositions, and the truth conditions of propositions. From each of these issues there arises a different sequence of developments to this doctrine, each of which has its own problems and solutions. Initially, the concept of descent is introduced in response to the problem of…Read more

21John Buridan and Jerónimo Pardo on the notion of propositioIn R. L. Friedman & S. Ebbesen (eds.), John Buridan and Beyond., Royal Danish Academy of Sciences and Letters. pp. 89--153. 2003.The first section of this article offers a reconstruction of Buridan's theory of propositions, along the following lines: on the syntactic plane, propositions obtain a special type of unity from the presence of a copula; on the semantic plane, the fact that a proposition does not have any specific significate (different from the significate of terms), does not erase the distinction between propositions and terms: the copula performs an act of saying, in virtue of which propositions can be true o…Read more

13Vaz Ferreira as a pragmatist : the articulation of science and philosophyIn Gregory Fernando Pappas (ed.), Pragmatism in the Americas, Fordham University Press. pp. 120-134. 2011.This paper presents an outline of Carlos Vaz Ferreira's moderate anti-intellectualism, paying special attention to the relations between science and philosophy as complementary aspects of human knowledge. Explicitly opposing William James's radical anti-intellectualism, and thus apparently anti-Pragmatist, Vaz is in fact very close to the central ideas of Pragmatism. A defense of reason as a valuable help for penetrating into reality, combined with the recognition of extra-rational elements that…Read more
