Ii. the origin of Frege's realism
Inquiry 24 (4):448 – 454 (1981)
| Abstract | An explanation of Frege's change from objective idealism to platonism is offered. Frege had originally thought that numbers are transparent to reason, but the character of his Axiom of Courses of Values undermined this view, and led him to think that numbers exist independently of reason. I then use these results to suggest a view of Frege's mathematical epistemology. | |||||||||
