Logic - Language - Ontology

The book "Logic - Language - Ontology" by Urszula B. Wybraniec-Skardowska offers an in-depth analysis of the relationship between language, logic, and ontology. It explores how we understand the meanings of words and how these meanings function in relation to abstract objects. The collection of articles, which spans the author's entire career, aims to unite the questions of syntax and semantics that extend across the disciplines of logic, philosophy, and ontology. A central theme is the distinction between linguistic tokens, which represent material, concrete objects, and linguistic types, which embody ideal, abstract objects. By applying classical logic and set theory, a general formal logical theory is developed that encompasses the syntax, semantics, and pragmatics of language, taking into account the duality of tokens and types in the analysis of linguistic expressions.
