A conceptualist interpretation of Lesniewski's ontology
History and Philosophy of Logic 22 (1):29-43 (2001)
| Abstract | A first-order formulation of Le?niewski's ontology is formulated and shown to be interpretable within a free first-order logic of identity extended to include nominal quantification over proper and common-name concepts. The latter theory is then shown to be interpretable in monadic second-order predicate logic, which shows that the first-order part of Le?niewski's ontology is decidable | |||||||||
