Craig Smoryński

Chapter Chapter 10 in Axiomatic Thinking I, 2022, pp 185-191 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The traditional view going back to the Greeks is that axioms are true and that truth is inherited from them through logical reasoning. The modern view, forcefully espoused by David Hilbert in a letter to Gottlob Frege of 29 December 1899 runs counter to this.
