This volume clusters together issues centered upon the variety of
types of intensional semantics. Consisting of 10 contributions, the
volume is based on papers presented at the Trends in Logic 2019
conference. The various chapters introduce readers to the topic, or
apply new types of logical semantics to elucidate subtleties of
logical systems and natural language semantics. The book introduces
hyperintentional systems that aim at solving some open
philosophical problems. Specifically, the first three studies focus
on relating semantics, while the following ones discuss fundamental
issues related to hyper-intensional semantics or develop
hyper-intensional frameworks to address issues in modal, epistemic,
deontic and action logic. Authors in this volume present original
results on logical systems but also extend beyond this by offering
philosophical considerations on the topic as well. This volume will
appeal to students and researchers in the field of logic.

Published in honor of Sergio Galvan, this collection concentrates
on the application of logical and mathematical methods for the
study of central issues in formal philosophy. The volume is
subdivided into four sections, dedicated to logic and philosophy of
logic, philosophy of mathematics, philosophy of science,
metaphysics and philosophy of religion. The contributions adress,
from a logical point of view, some of the main topics in these
areas. The first two sections include formal treatments of: truth
and paradoxes; definitions by abstraction; the status of abstract
objects, such as mathematical objects and universal concepts; and
the structure of explicit knowledge. The last two sections include
papers on classical problems in philosophy of science, such as the
status of subjective probability, the notion of verisimilitude, the
notion of approximation, and the theory of mind and mental
causation, and specific issues in metaphysics and philosophy of
religion, such as the ontology of species, actions, and
intelligible worlds, and the logic of religious belonging.
