W. V. Quine was one of the most influential figures of
twentieth-century American analytic philosophy. Although he wrote
predominantly in English, in Brazil in 1942 he gave a series of
lectures on logic and its philosophy in Portuguese, subsequently
published as the book O Sentido da Nova Logica. The book has never
before been fully translated into English, and this volume is the
first to make its content accessible to Anglophone philosophers.
Quine would go on to develop revolutionary ideas about semantic
holism and ontology, and this book provides a snapshot of his views
on logic and language at a pivotal stage of his intellectual
development. The volume also includes an essay on logic which Quine
also published in Portuguese, together with an extensive
historical-philosophical essay by Frederique Janssen-Lauret. The
valuable and previously neglected works first translated in this
volume will be essential for scholars of twentieth-century
philosophy.
