A Shortcut for Intuitionistic Double-Negation | Attic Philosophy

Показать описание
Intuitionistic negation can be difficult to get your head around, so double-negations are twice as tricky! Not-not-p doesn't mean the same as p (as it would do in classical logic). Fortunately, there's a shortcut we can use to work out that not-not-p means and where it'll be verified in a model.

I just discovered this channel recently and it is amazing! I first encountered Prof. Jago via an NDPR review he did of Tallant's book on truthmaking and for whatever reason, I pictured him as a grizzly veteran with a white beard. Fun to see a high energy young man instead! Keep up the excellent work!

I've heard double negation as "we don't doubt p", is that a fair interpretation?

These videos would be a lot better for me if there were some real world examples included.
