[On the Relation of Visual Thinking and Instrumental Practice in Mathematics]

Kvasz, L. Filosofický časopis. Roč. 66, č. 6 (2018), s. 845-867. ISSN 0015-1831

The aim of the paper is to complement the cognitive interpretation of visual thought in mathematics with the linguistic and instrumental dimension. Pictures in mathematical texts have a semiotic dimension, in the interpretation of which a set of conventions plays a significant role.

About Project

The aim of the project is to develop a formalization of epistemology analogous to Frege’s formalization of logic. The core of the project centres upon five theses setting out the path to a truly formal epistemology. These theses are based on the deeply-held belief that the current trend in the formalization of epistemology is insufficiently radical.
