Gentzen's approach to logic

Carlo Cellucci

pp. 199-213

Abstract

In Chapter 10 it has been argued that Frege's analysis of deduction does not achieve his ideal of atomizing deduction. A better approximation to this ideal is provided by Gentzen's analysis of deduction. In order to describe it, we need to fix some terminology and notation about first-order languages.
