I'm supposed to be writing a midterm paper on Frege-ian? logic vs Aristotelian logic...but I ended up browsing TL instead. Then I noticed Zulu's blog asking for something or other on Nietzsche and Foucalt...
So I figured I might as well ask for some help here as well.
Can someone PLEASE explain Aristotelian logic to me? I don't have a good grasp on it, and it's totally fucking me up the ass.
I just need some sort of gloss (especially in contrast to Frege's or modern logic), because as of now all I have are points to go over on both forms, but nearly nothing to say on the two together.
I'm only good at this philosophy shit when I'm on Adderall, I swear...

For anything you can possibly ask that is philosophy related that site is just awesome. Used it thoroughly when I studied for my philosophy exam, and it's really great.

i have a 2000-3000 word draft thing for the first section of my dissertation due tmr and im .. well . . here.. fuck

1 + 1 = 2
hence
2 + 2 = 4
+ Show Spoiler +jk! xP first thing i thought of was discrete math =( im pro @ that

That's actually a huge part of Frege...he fucking devotes an entire section of an essay to examining basic math...like why 2+3=5 and why you can say that 2+3=7 is false or something like that...
That's the basis for his entire logic thing...examining basic arithmetic and showing that it stems from logic...or is at least a major part of it.
At least that's how I understand it so far...
UGH. I wish Frege was a better writer...then the translation wouldnt be so fucking hard to read, I bet. I've NEVER come across writing as dense as this shit.

Hey, I'm here too. And I'm not even supposed to be studying. So, is there anyone else like me or am I the only one?

This isn't a thread about having sex with a prostitute but rather about logic.

It's illogical to waste time browsing TL when you have homework due soon

Aristotel was D- lol
How can you like a guy who said that 'logic is enough to solve the Universe'
he actually thought that if you stand in a cave with enough time and intelligence, you will figure out everything without any need for practical observation of ANYTHING

and yeah, Team Liquid is effectively SUCKING ALL MY TIME, leaving me with hours upon hours of doing nothing but mouse scrolling and clicking

I find it hilarious that you are versed in Frege-ian logic but not Aristotelian. It's supposed to be the other way around.
