Abstract
- John Poinsot's concept of logic from his compendium Cursus philosophicus thomisticus will be reconstructed in terms of his concept of logical analysis (resolutio). The fundamental perspective of the research will assume that logical analysis is the central issue of Poinsot's logic which thereby offers a technique of contriving a perfectly transparent language. Three basic concepts of logical analysis are endorsed in Cursus philosophicus: 1. the syntactic concept of analysis: resolutio as explication of compound expressions; 2. the semantic concept of analysis: resolutio as reduction of general statements to singular statements or as making their truth and assertability conditions explicit; 3. the epistemological concept of analysis: resolutio as axiomatisation through deducing all provable sentences from fundamental principles of the respective scientific theory. Theories of definition, "exponibilia", "suppositio", deductive validity, and demonstrative knowledge will be construed as techniques of logical analysis, contributing to syntactic, semantic, logical, and epistemic transparency of perfect languages.
