Polish Roots of Meredith’s System of Modal Logic
Original language description
Irish logician Carew Arthur Meredith linked his work with that of two great logicians, Jan Leopold Łukasiewicz and Arthur Prior. In order to understand his systems of logic, these connections should be taken into consideration. This paper focuses on the first of them, stressing the extent to which Meredith’s system of modal logic was influenced by Łukasiewicz, who developed his system of modal logic at the same time. As well as dealing with Łukasiewicz’s direct impact on Meredith, the paper also discusses his indirect one—through Łukasiewicz’s introduction of Meredith to the work of his former pupil, Mordchaj Wajsberg, who suggested the first semantics for Lewis’s systems of strict implication. A better understanding of the connection between the systems of these three logicians could shed light on some of the systems’ troublesome features.
