A Brief Prehistory of Philosophical Paraconsistency
Vol 14, No 1 (2010) • Principia: an international journal of epistemology
Autor: William H. F. Altman
Abstract:
In celebration of Newton da Costa’s place in the history of paraconsistency, this paper considers the use and abuse of deliberate self-contradiction. Beginning with Parmenides, developed by Plato, and continued by Cicero, an ancient philosophical tradition used deliberately paraconsistent discourses to reveal the truth. In modern times, decisionism has used deliberate self-contradiction against Judeo-Christian revelation.
