Descripción

Corcoran, John. 1999. Logical form, The Cambridge Dictionary of Philosophy, edited by Robert Audi, Cambridge, Cambridge University Press, second edition.LOGICAL FORM, the form obtained from a proposition, a set of propositions or an argument by abstracting from the subject-matter of its content terms or by regarding the content terms as mere place-holders or blanks in a form. In a logically perfect language the logical form of a proposition, a set of propositions, or an argument is determined by the grammatical form of the sentence, the set of sentences, or the argument-text expressing it. Modern formal languages used in formal axiomatizations of mathematical sciences are often taken as examples of logically perfect languages. Pioneering work on logically perfect languages was done by George Boole (1815-64), Gottlob Frege (1848-1925), Giuseppe Peano (1858-1952), Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) and Alonzo Church (1903-1995).
