Logical ideas of 'Akos Pauler

The article introduces Russian readers to the basic logical ideas of the Hungarian logician and Platonic philosopher Ákos Pauler (1876-1933). The logical theory built by the Hungarian thinker on the basis of Platonic dualism of ideas and matter, includes the doctrine of reduction, doctrine of the three laws of thought, and doctrine of concepts. The author states that the specificity of Paulerian Platonism lies in a radical differentiation of the world of sensory perceptions and the world of thought and the concentration of the philosopher’s interests on the latter.
