The present selection from the Wissenschaftslehre (Sulzbach 1837)
of Bernard Bolzano (1781-1848) aims at giving a compact view of his
main ideas in logic, semantics, epistemology and the methodology of
science. These ideas are analyzed from a modern point of view in
the Introduction. Furthermore, excerpts from Bolzano's
correspondence are included which yield important remarks on his
own work. The translation of the sections from the
Wissenschaftslehre are based on a German text, which I have located
in the Manuscript Department of the University Library in Prague
(signature: 75 B 459). It was one of Bolzano's own copies of his
printed work and contains a vast number of corrections made by
Bolzano himself, thus representing the final stage of his thought,
which has gone unnoticed in previous editions. The German originals
of Bolzano's letters to M. J. Fesl, J. P. Romang, R. Zimmermann and
F. Pi'ihonsky are in the Literary Archive of the Pamatnfk narodnfho
pfsemnictvf in Prague. The original of the letter to F. Exner
belongs to the Manuscript Department of the Osterreichische
Nationalbibliothek in Vienna. The original of the letter to J. E.
Seidel is preserved in the Museum of the City of Ceske Budejovice.
