Pamukkale University Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, hosted an important academic event. Organized with the collaboration of Istanbul University Faculty of Letters Department of Philosophy, Istanbul Medeniyet University Faculty of Letters Department of Philosophy, and the Logic Research Association, the "I. National Logic Symposium" was held in Denizli on the dates of November 13-14.
To the symposium, which continued for two days with simultaneous sessions at Pamukkale University, approximately 50 researchers from all four corners of Turkey contributed with their presentations.
The first day's opening speech was realized with the talk titled “Logic and Mathematics: ‘Mixed Sciences’ in terms of Subject, Predicate, and Proof” by Istanbul Medeniyet University Institute of the History of Science Director Prof. Dr. İhsan Fazlıoğlu.
Prof. Dr. Fazlıoğlu, in his speech, focused on the intersection points of the logic and mathematics disciplines, and examined how these two fields were handled under the umbrella of 'Mixed Sciences' (el-Ulûmu'l-Mahlûta) in the history of science. Fazlıoğlu, especially through fundamental philosophical and logical categories such as subject, predicate, and proof, presented a different perspective regarding the historical and conceptual relationship between logic and mathematics.
