  • Alfred Tarski and a Watershed Meeting in Logic: Cornell, 1957 Solomon Feferman1
    Alfred Tarski and a watershed meeting in logic: Cornell, 1957 Solomon Feferman1 For Jan Wolenski, on the occasion of his 60th birthday2 In the summer of 1957 at Cornell University the first of a cavalcade of large-scale meetings partially or completely devoted to logic took place--the five-week long Summer Institute for Symbolic Logic. That meeting turned out to be a watershed event in the development of logic: it was unique in bringing together for such an extended period researchers at every level in all parts of the subject, and the synergetic connections established there would thenceforth change the face of mathematical logic both qualitatively and quantitatively. Prior to the Cornell meeting there had been nothing remotely like it for logicians. Previously, with the growing importance in the twentieth century of their subject both in mathematics and philosophy, it had been natural for many of the broadly representative meetings of mathematicians and of philosophers to include lectures by logicians or even have special sections devoted to logic. Only with the establishment of the Association for Symbolic Logic in 1936 did logicians begin to meet regularly by themselves, but until the 1950s these occasions were usually relatively short in duration, never more than a day or two. Alfred Tarski was one of the principal organizers of the Cornell institute and of some of the major meetings to follow on its heels. Before the outbreak of World War II, outside of Poland Tarski had primarily been involved in several Unity of Science Congresses, including the first, in Paris in 1935, and the fifth, at Harvard in September, 1939.

  • 1 for Philosophy of Mathematics: 5 Questions. Solomon Feferman
    For Philosophy of Mathematics: 5 Questions. Solomon Feferman Patrick Suppes Family Professor of Humanities and Sciences, Em. Professor of Mathematics and Philosophy, Em. Stanford University The 5 Questions 1. Why were you initially drawn to the foundations of mathematics and/or the philosophy of mathematics? 2. What examples from your work (or the work of others) illustrate the use of mathematics for philosophy? 3. What is the proper role of philosophy of mathematics in relation to logic, foundations of mathematics, the traditional core areas of mathematics, and science? 4. What do you consider the most neglected topics and/or contributions in late 20th century philosophy of mathematics? 5. What are the most important open problems in the philosophy of mathematics and what are the prospects for progress? My Responses 1. I’m a philosopher by temperament but not by training, and a philosopher of logic and mathematics in part, as I shall relate, by accidents of study and career. Yet, it seems to me that if I was destined for anything it was to be a logician primarily motivated by philosophical concerns. When I was a teenager growing up in Los Angeles in the early 1940s, my dream was to become a mathematical physicist: I was fascinated by the ideas of relativity theory and quantum mechanics, and I read popular expositions which, in those days, besides Einstein’s The Meaning of Relativity, was limited to books by the likes of Arthur S. Eddington and James Jeans. I breezed through the high-school mathematics courses (calculus was not then on offer, and my teachers barely understood it), but did less well in physics, which I should have taken as a reality check.

  • Nationalism, Formal Logic, and Interwar Poland
    Science in Central and Eastern Europe David E. Dunning ORCID 0000-0001-6824-5926 Princeton University, Department of History (Princeton, USA) [email protected] The logic of the nation: Nationalism, formal logic, and interwar Poland Abstract Between the World Wars, a robust research community emerged in the nascent discipline of mathematical logic in Warsaw. Logic in Warsaw grew out of overlapping imperial legacies, launched mainly by Polish-speaking scholars who had trained in Habsburg universities and had come during the First World War to the Uni- versity of Warsaw, an institution controlled until recently by Rus- sia and reconstructed as Polish under the auspices of German occupation. The intellectuals who formed the Warsaw School of Logic embraced a patriotic Polish identity. Competitive na- tionalist attitudes were common among interwar scientists – a stance historians have called “Olympic internationalism,” in which nationalism and internationalism interacted as comple- mentary rather than conflicting impulses.

  • Anita Burdman Feferman
    Anita Burdman Feferman July 27, 1927-April 9, 2015 Anita Burdman Feferman died peacefully at the age of 87 in hospice care at her home, to the surprise of many who thought her invincible. Professionally, she was noted as the author of two highly praised biographies, and personally as a vibrant, stylish, athletic, direct, spontaneous, engaging and engaged human being. She was a loyal friend to young and old; to her family she was sine qua non as a loving and caring wife, mother and grandmother. Born in Los Angeles, Anita Feferman attended Hollywood High School, UCLA and the University of California at Berkeley, from which she graduated in 1948 with a B.A. After working as a teacher on a pediatric psychiatric ward in San Francisco she returned to the university in Berkeley for a degree in education, and then taught to her constant satisfaction in the Oakland elementary school system. In 1956 she moved to the Peninsula with her husband Solomon Feferman, who had just joined the faculty of Stanford University in the departments of Mathematics and Philosophy. They came with two very young daughters and so Anita traded teaching for raising a family. Always a serious reader and natural storyteller, in her 40s she took writing courses at Stanford and began her writing career with a number of short stories and interviews. It was also at Stanford that she became an early and active member of a notable biographers’ seminar initiated by Diane Middlebrook and Barbara Babcock. Anita Feferman’s first biography was Politics, Logic and Love: The Life of Jean van Heijenoort (reprinted in paper as From Trotsky to Gödel), published in 1993.

  • My Route to Arithmetization Solomon Feferman
    My route to arithmetization Solomon Feferman For Per Lindström I had the pleasure of renewing my acquaintance with Per Lindström at the meeting of the Seventh Scandinavian Logic Symposium, held in Uppsala in August 1996. There at lunch one day, Per said he had long been curious about the development of some of the ideas in my paper [1960] on the arithmetization of metamathematics. In particular, I had used the construction of a non-standard definition !* of the set of axioms of P (Peano Arithmetic) to show that P + {¬ Con!} is interpretable in P, where ! is a standard definition of the axioms of P and Con! expresses the consistency of P via that presentation. Per pointed out that there is a simple “two-line” proof of this interpretability result which does not require the use of such formulas as !*, and he wondered whether I had been aware of that. In fact, his proof had never occurred to me, and if it had at the time, it is possible I would never have been led to the use of non-natural definitions. Per regarded this as a happy accident, since subsequent work by him and others on interpretability made essential use of such definitions. In our conversation, I enlarged a bit on the background to my work on arithmetization, and when I was invited to contribute to this special issue of Theoria dedicated to Lindström, it seemed a natural choice to use the occasion to fill out the story. One caveat, though: the following is drawn largely from memory, not always reliable, supplemented by consultation of the 1960 paper and the 1957 dissertation from which it was drawn.
