The grammar of meanings underlying Ibn Sina’s logic
Abstract : Ibn Sina, almost certainly following a tradition going back to
Porphyry, reduced the prerequisites for logic to a minimum by basing it on
our intuitive understanding of meanings. He saw meanings as organised
into a kind of dependency grammar, which in his logic plays a similar role
to Begriffsschrift in Frege’s logic. This gave him a handle for extending
logic radically, for example to sentences with complex patterns of
quantifiers.
