Özet:

The first Turkish logic books in Turkey are written in the second half of the 19th century. As the Farabi-Ibn Sina tradition, which is based on Aristotle’s logical views, shapes the field of classical logic in Turkey, in this framework the basic concepts, issues and discussions of classical logic (usually logic) are addressed. Specifically in the first half of the twentieth century, translations present the leading symbolic logic work that the developments in logic reveal in Turkey, while some German philosophers who came to the University of Istanbul after 1933 such as Reichenbach and von Aster have made a great contribution to the beginning of the academic development of the symbolic logic in Turkey. 21 of 21. As to the century, the Istanbul University Logic Application and Research Center, which was founded in 2014, as well as the Logic Association, some units and institutions regularly workshops, summer schools, international events, etc. It also works and transforms it into a broadcast. From all these platforms, it seems that young logicists in Turkey today are more interested in symbolic logic issues, that is, contemporary discussions. In this context, young symbolic logicists, such as mathematics, physics, computer sciences and various fields of engineering, may be advised to focus on the research on the enlightenment of the significance and value of symbolic logic, in particular the practices in philosophy, the contribution it can make to philosophy in this direction and, as a result, the significance and value for philosophy. In fact, the importance of these young logicists to do studies that will concrete the interaction between philosophy and symbolic logic in general is extremely high. It is also useful to note that they must, in addition to logic and philosophy, follow the developments in mathematics and sciences, and be aware of the philosophical investigations in these fields.

Özet:

The first Turkish logic books in Turkey were written in the second half of the 19th century. Based on the views of Aristotle's logic, Al Farabi-Ibn Sina embodied the tradition of classical logic approach in Turkey. In this framework, studies began to investigate the basic concepts, problems and discussions of classical logic (general logic). Especially the first half of the 20th century translations done and developments in logic posed pioneering work of symbolic logic by introducing it to Turkey, while some German philosophers such as Reichenbach and von Aster coming to Istanbul University after 1933 made great contributions to the beginning of academic adventure of symbolic logic in Turkey. As for the 21st century, both the Istanbul University Center for Research and Practice in Logic and also the Turkish Logic Society were constituted in 2014. Since then they, together with some universities and institutions, have regularly organized workshops, summer schools, international activities etc. What is more, they have attempted to publish papers presented in these organizations too. It can be seen from all of these platforms that young logicians in today’s Turkey are much more interested in issues in symbolic logic, i.e. contemporary discussions. Symbolic logic has had broad application areas in mathematics, physics, computer sciences, and various branches of engineering recently. For this reason, young symbolic logicians could be directed specifically to research on applications of logic in philosophy to illuminate the contributions, and ultimately the meaning of symbolic logic for philosophy. In fact, in order to strengthen the interaction between philosophy and symbolic logic in general, young logicians’ inquiries would have a great importance. Furthermore, it would be useful to draw attention to the necessity for these logicians to carry on their studies by following developments in philosophy, logic, mathematics, and science and also by being informed about philosophical arguments related to these areas.
