[PEIRCE-L] Why Logics?

[jean-yves beziau]

Dear Colleagues
I am glad to announce the recent publication of the paper
"Why* Logics?" *in the new MDPI journal * LOGICS*
https://www.mdpi.com/2813-0405/1/3/7

In section 4, entitled "Birth of the Journal *Logics*",  I tell how I
suggested to MDPI launching  a new journal named "Logics" (it was two years
ago in July 2021) and how this journal was created.
In this paper, I explain what the motivation to have a journal with such a
name was and how we can understand the plural of "logic".
This is the opportunity to develop a reflection about  the meaning and
importance of logic.
Nice to see, following other projects I have launched, such as the World
Logic Day, that logic is becoming more and more influential.

Abstract: Can we talk about the Ultimate (like the ultimate God or the
ultimate reality Dao) with its contradictory features in a consistent way
as guided by a refined principle of non-contradiction?  My goal in this
talk is to explain a refined principle of non-contradiction (PNC) from a
holistic “double-reference” vantage point. I also aim at capturing the
“double-reference” point of Lao Zi’s opening statements of the Dao-De-Jing
and the central point of Aristotle’s classical presentation of the PNC.
Dissolving the “Ultimate-unspeakable paradox”, the addressed refined PNC
can guide us to talk about real contradictions in the Ultimate in a
non-contradictory and insightful way. For a discussion of Lao Zi's relevant
ideas see chapter 6 of my 2018 book S*emantic-Truth Approaches in Chinese
Philosophy: A Unifying Pluralist Account
*.
For
the double-reference idea see section 3.2 of my paper *An enhanced account
of relative identity
*
.


With best wishes,
