This volume examines the entire logical and philosophical
production of Nicolai A. Vasil'ev, studying his life and activities
as a historian and man of letters. Readers will gain a
comprehensive understanding of this influential Russian logician,
philosopher, psychologist, and poet. The author frames Vasil'ev's
work within its historical and cultural context. He takes into
consideration both the situation of logic in Russia and the state
of logic in Western Europe, from the end of the 19th century to the
beginning of the 20th. Following this, the book considers the
attempts to develop non-Aristotelian logics or ideas that present
affinities with imaginary logic. It then looks at the contribution
of traditional logic in elaborating non-classical ideas. This logic
allows the author to deal with incomplete objects just as imaginary
logic does with contradictory ones. Both logics are objects of
interesting analysis by modern researchers. This volume will appeal
to graduate students and scholars interested not only in Vasil'ev's
work, but also in the history of non-classical logics.
