RegisterCourse Overview
Logic, 'the science of reasoning', investigates the difference between good and bad deductive arguments. As such, logic is an essential element of any philosopher's toolkit, as well as an area of philosophical inquiry in its own right.
A natural language like English is full of imprecision and ambiguity; this short course introduces sentential logic with its own formal, logically precise language, which enables us to lay bare the logically relevant features of natural language so that we can evaluate the correctness of arguments. In a further step, we introduce predicate logic, an extension of sentential logic, which allows us to assess an even wider array of arguments. The course equips you with a solid foundation in logic crucial to the practice of philosophy, as well as other disciplines such as computer science, linguistics and the cognitive sciences.
We will cover:
- natural and formal languages
- types and tokens
- use and mention
- validity and soundness
- semantics
- deduction
- quantification
- sets and relations.
Assessment is via a 1000-word writing assignment (50%) and take-home short-answer examination (50%).
This can be taken as a standalone short course or as part of:
