Free logic - i.e., logic free of existential presuppositions in
general and with respect to singular terms in particular- began to
come into its own as a field of research in the 1950s. As is the
case with so many developments in Western philosophy, its roots can
be traced back to ancient Greek philo sophy. It is only during the
last fifty years, however, that it has become well established as a
branch of modern logic. The name of Karel Lambert is most closely
connected with this development: he gave it its name and its
profile as a well defined field of research. After a development of
fifty years, it is time to look back and take stock while at the
same time scanning for new perspectives. This is the purpose of the
papers collected in this volume. The first paper is written by
Karel Lambert himself who also comments on all the papers of the
other authors. In an introductory essay we give a survey of the
present status of and new directions in free logic."
