This book contains 18 chapters by scholars from all over the world. John Corcoran died on January 8, 2021. On January 13, his wife Lynn wrote to me the following; "As I was going through his recent emails, I saw your posting of World Logic Day tomorrow, January 14. I’m sure you are very busy at the moment, but if it would be possible to announce John’s death, please do so. Before he died, John had asked me to notify you and to tell you how much he appreciated your friendship, as well as your enthusiastic and imaginative support of logic. He greatly enjoyed his participation in the conference you organized in Istanbul. I accompanied him on that trip and it was a wonderful experience for both of us." https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/bfm:978-3-031-44461-6/1 In section 6 "The Existential Import of John Corcoran" of my paper entitled "Ex Incompatibilitate Sequitur Quodlibet" https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-031-44461-6_3 I remind important things about Corcoran, in particular: - his masterful introduction to the second edition of the collection of papers by Alfred Tarksi "Logic, Semantic, Metamathematics" - A.Tarski, “What are logical notions?” (edited by J.Corcoran), History and Philosophy of Logic, 7 (1986), pp.143–154. https://sites.google.com/view/5th-logical-notion/what-are-logical-notions JYB -- LOGICA-L Lista acadêmica brasileira dos profissionais e estudantes da área de Lógica <logica-l@dimap.ufrn.br> --- Você está recebendo esta mensagem porque se inscreveu no grupo "LOGICA-L" dos Grupos do Google.
