Abstract
Gotthard Günther's early work is inspired by Hegel's logic. Both share the view that the forms of ‘classical logic’ are insufficient to capture essential aspects of thought. However, while Hegel rules out formalization for his dialectical logic, Günther attributes this to the fact that Hegel's thought itself is still bound to the forms of a classical logic. Günther thus develops a trans-classical logic, with which he believes he can formally capture some of Hegel's insights. The paper presents Günther’s critical engagement with Hegel and outlines some basic assumptions arising from his critique.
期刊介绍:
History and Philosophy of Logic contains articles, notes and book reviews dealing with the history and philosophy of logic. ’Logic’ is understood to be any volume of knowledge which was regarded as logic at the time in question. ’History’ refers back to ancient times and also to work in this century; however, the Editor will not accept articles, including review articles, on very recent work on a topic. ’Philosophy’ refers to broad and general questions: specialist articles which are now classed as ’philosophical logic’ will not be published.
The Editor will consider articles on the relationship between logic and other branches of knowledge, but the component of logic must be substantial. Topics with no temporal specification are to be interpreted both historically and philosophically. Each topic includes its own metalogic where appropriate.
