Analysis in the idealist tradition: the development of Leibniz's analytic method by Kant and Hegel and its implications for contemporary philosophy. This project investigates the development of the 'analytic' method in the idealist philosophies of Leibniz, Kant and Hegel, and compares it to 'analysis' as used in analytic philosophy. It thereby seeks to find a ground for dialogue between strands within contemporary philosophy that are usually thought to be opposed.
Critical edition of Robert Kilwardby's commentary on Aristotle's Prior Analytics, with historical / philosophical introduction and analytical notes. In the Middle Ages, logic was one of the areas of philosophy that could be pursued relatively independently of theology. Great conceptual achievements resulted, many of which have been given new expression using the techniques of modern logic. This project will make Kilwardby's highly original work in logic accessible to contemporary logicians.
