M. Vlasáková:
Bernard Bolzano: cesta k logické sémantice
(Bernard Bolzano: The Path to Logical Semantics),
Filosofia, Praha

 Most of Bolzano’s logical work was ignored in his time and was afterward almost forgotten. When interest in Bolzano’s logical heritage arose later it became clear that he had often developed logical issues that became topical much later. This is true especially for themes from logical semantics (concepts, logical truth and logical entailment, the analyticity of a statement), which was developed in detail by Alfred Tarski one hundred years after Bolzano. But Bolzano is not only a great anticipator of ideas. Inspiration can be found in his work for the further development of logic. This book therefore attempts not only to analyze the issues in Bolzano’s work, but also to confront them with contemporary approaches and so to bring his logical work up to date.
