The main subject is the logical analysis of certain relations between questions and the contexts of their appearance. And our aim is to elaborate the conceptual apparatus of the inferential approach to the logic of questions. Questions are asked for many reasons and for different purposes. Yet, before a question is asked or posed, a questioner must arrive at it. In many cases arriving at a question resembles coming to a conclusion: there are some premises involved and some inferential thought processes take place. If we agree that a conclusion need not be "conclusive", we may say that sometimes questions can play the role of conclusions. But questions can also perform the role of premises: we often pass from some "initial" question to another question. In other words, there are inferential thought processes - we shall call them erotetic inferences - in which questions play the roles of conclusions or conclu | 出版日期 | Book 1995 | 关键词 | formal logic; knowledge; logic; reason; semantics | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-015-8406-7 | isbn_softcover | 978-90-481-4595-9 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-015-8406-7Series ISSN 0166-6991 Series E-ISSN 2542-8292 | issn_series | 0166-6991 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 1995 |
