2Truth 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

3La 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.

35Late 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

20John 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

12Vaz 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

41Definition and Demonstration: Aristotle, Averroes, GrossetesteIn A. C. Storck (ed.), Aristotelis analytica posteriora: estudos acerca da recepcao medieval dos segundos analiticos, Linus Editores. 2009.The aim of this article is to help to clarify the role which Aristotle gives to definition in his theory of demonstration. I shall begin by examining his handling of the relations between definition and demonstration in chapters 8-10 of the second book of the Posterior Analytics, in order to provide an outline for an interpretation of Aristotle's thought. Secondly, I shall examine chapter 10 in more detail, bringing out the contrast between the commentary by Averroes and that of Grosseteste. I …Read more

33The Place of Relations in Hieronymus Pardo's Semantics of PropositionsBritish Journal for the History of Philosophy 24 (3): 512-531. 2016.I examine a sixteenth-century development of the anti-realist propositional semantics which is based on the notion of ‘mode’. Pardo uses this notion to offer a personal interpretation of the Buridanian criticism of complexe significabilia. He develops a middle way between the reduction of the significate of propositions to particular things and the postulation of non-standard entities which are only complexly signifiable. The key to this middle way is Pardo's understanding of the notion of ‘mode…Read more

41Jerónimo Pardo on the Unity of Mental PropositionsIn J. Biard (ed.), Le langage mental du Moyen Âge à l'Âge Classique, Peeters Publishers. 2009.Originally motivated by a sophism, Pardo's discussion about the unity of mental propositions allows him to elaborate on his ideas about the nature of propositions. His option for a non-composite character of mental propositions is grounded in an original view about syncategorems: propositions have a syncategorematic signification, which allows them to signify aliquid aliqualiter, just by virtue of the mental copula, without the need of any added categorematic element. Pardo's general claim about…Read more
