The impressive record of Italian philosophical research since the
end of Fascism thirty-two years ago is shown in many fields:
esthetics, social and" personal ethics, history and sociology of
philosophy, and magnificently, perhaps above all, in logic,
foundations of mathematics and the philosophY, methodology, and
intellectual history ofthe empirical sciences. To our pleasure,
Maria Luisa Dalla Chiara of the University of Florence gladly
agreed to assemble a 'sampler' of recent Italian logical and
analytical work on the philosophical foundations of mathematics and
physics, along with a number of historical studies of
epistemological and mathematical concepts. The twenty-five essays
that form this volume will, we expect, encourage English-reading
philosophers and scientists to seek further works by these authors
and by their teachers, colleagues, and students; and, we hope, to
look for those other Italian currents of thought in the philosophy
of science for which points of departure are not wholly analytic,
and which also deserve study and recognition in the world wide
philosophical community. Of course, Italy has long been related to
that world community in scien titlc matters."
