Grundgesetze der Arithmetik
begriffsschriftlich abgeleitet
Book • 1893
Gottlob Frege's "Grundgesetze der Arithmetik" (Basic Laws of Arithmetic) is a foundational work in mathematical logic and the philosophy of mathematics.
It aimed to rigorously derive arithmetic from logic, establishing the foundations of mathematics in logical principles.
Frege's work introduced important concepts such as quantifiers, functions, and the distinction between sense and reference.
However, the system was later shown to be inconsistent due to Russell's paradox, which revealed a contradiction within Frege's axioms.
Despite this, "Grundgesetze" remains a landmark achievement in the history of logic and philosophy of mathematics.
