  3. Logic and Mathematics in the Seventeenth Century.Massimo Mugnai - 2010 - History and Philosophy of Logic 31 (4):297-314.
    According to the received view (Bocheński, Kneale), from the end of the fourteenth to the second half of nineteenth century, logic enters a period of decadence. If one looks at this period, the richness of the topics and the complexity of the discussions that characterized medieval logic seem to belong to a completely different world: a simplified theory of the syllogism is the only surviving relic of a glorious past. Even though this negative appraisal is grounded on good reasons, it (...)

    Ontology and Logic: The Case of Scholastic and Late-Scholastic Theory of Relations.Massimo Mugnai - 2016 - British Journal for the History of Philosophy 24 (3):532-553.
    This paper investigates the reason why, in the tradition of Western philosophy, a logic of relations was developed only in the second half of the nineteenth century. To this end, it moves along two different but interconnected paths: on the one hand, it attempts to reconstruct the main views concerning the ontology of relations during the middle ages; on the other, it focuses on the treatment of so-called oblique terms in the logical works of some preeminent authors belonging to the (...)

    Bemerkungen zu Leibniz' Theorie der Relationen.Massimo Mugnai - 1978 - Studia Leibnitiana 10 (1):2 - 21.
    Many of the problems traditionally related to the interpretation of Leibniz' theory of relations may be seen in a better light considering essentially two factors: 1) the different plans (ontological, metaphysical, psychological and logical-linguistic) implied by Leibniz reflections on the subject; 2) the reference to scholastic and late-scholastic texts read or consulted by Leibniz. Relations for Leibniz are, from a metaphysical point of view, denominations only seemingly external, they are in reality denominationes intrinsecae, and are founded on the general connection (...)

    Leibniz on Relations, Again.Massimo Mugnai - 2022 - Studia Leibnitiana 54 (2):250-266.
    In his article, Florian Vermeiren attributes to Leibniz – like other interpreters before him – the distinction of two different kinds of relations: 1) relations in the proper sense of the word as, for example, the fatherhood subsisting between Sophroniscus and Socrates, which Leibniz considers situated ‘outside the subjects’ involved; 2) relational properties, such as being a father, inherent in Sophroniscus. The distinction is clearly present in Leibniz’s writings. According to Vermeiren, Leibniz considers ‘purely mental’ only the relations ‘out of (...)

    Syllogistic Logic and Mathematical Proof.Paolo Mancosu & Massimo Mugnai - 2023 - Oxford, GB: Oxford University Press. Edited by Massimo Mugnai.
    Does syllogistic logic have the resources to capture mathematical proof? This volume provides the first unified account of the history of attempts to answer this question, the reasoning behind the different positions taken, and their far-reaching implications. Aristotle had claimed that scientific knowledge, which includes mathematics, is provided by syllogisms of a special sort: 'scientific' ('demonstrative') syllogisms. In ancient Greece and in the Middle Ages, the claim that Euclid's theorems could be recast syllogistically was accepted without further scrutiny. Nevertheless, as (...)

    Leibniz and ‘Bradley’s Regress’.Massimo Mugnai - 2010 - The Leibniz Review 20:1-12.
    In a text written during his stay in Paris, Leibniz, to deny ontological reality to relations, employs an argument well known to the medieval thinkers and which later would be revived by Francis H. Bradley. If one assumes that relations are real and that a relation links any property to a subject – so runs the argument – then one falls prey to an infinite regress. Leibniz seems to be well aware of the consequences that this argument has for his (...)

    Leibniz o la morte di un difensore del "cristianesimo universale".Massimo Mugnai - 2012 - Rivista di Storia Della Filosofia 1:141-152.
    At death's door, Leibniz firmly refused to see a priest. This seems to be in strong contrast with the central role that he attributes to God in his philosophy and with his explicit acceptance of the Christian religion. Thus, the circumstances surrounding Leibniz's death, as related by some direct and indirect witnesses, provide an opportunity to examine the sincerity of Leibniz's position on religion. The final conclusion is that Leibniz believed in a religion broadly inspired by Christian principles but that (...)

    Leibniz on substance and changing properties.Massimo Mugnai - 2005 - Dialectica 59 (4):503–516.
    The paper examines three essays that Leibniz wrote in 1688, immediately after the composition of the Discourse on Metaphysics, one of his most organic philosophical works. The main topics which emerge from these essays are: the relationship between substance and accidents; the nature of accidents; and, more generally, the nature of abstract entities. Given that accidents' nature is that of changing, Leibniz sees how hard it is to give an account of the relationship between substance and accidents that does not (...)

    This book is a collection of essays published by the author in the long run of about 20 years and is centered on the reconstruction of Leibniz’s logical calculi. All the essays have been revised for the present edition and some of them constituted the background for Lenzen’s first monograph on Leibniz’s logic. A feature common to all these essays is the vindication of the relevance and originality of Leibniz’s logical achievements. Lenzen manifests strong dissatisfaction with the evaluations of Leibniz’s (...)

    This book offers a careful investigation of Leibniz’s theory of truth and, at the same time, an accurate analysis of many aspects of Leibniz’s ontology and philosophy of logic. Given its complexity and richness, I limit myself to illustrat ing certain aspects of Rauzy’s inquiry and to expressing some, albeit moderate, disagreement. Despite this disagreement, the author’s achievement is extraordinary. Anyone interested in Leibniz’s logic and metaphysics will read it with great profit.
