‎First appearance of Frege's important paper on the role of axioms in mathematical theories, describing the correct way to demonstrate consistency and independence results for such axioms.The two papers was Frege's response to Hilbert's ""Grundlagen der Geometrie"" which inaugurated the famous Frege-Hilbert Controversy. ""Hilbert's lecture [Grundlagen der Geometrie] inspired a sharp reaction from his contemporary Gottlob Frege, who found both Hilbert's understanding of axioms, and his approach to consistency and independence demonstrations, virtually incomprehensible and at any rate seriously flawed. Frege's reaction is first laid out in his correspondence with Hilbert from December 1899 to September 1900, and subsequently in two series of essays (both entitled ""On the Foundations of Geometry"") published in 1903 and 1906. Hilbert was never moved by Frege's criticisms, and did not respond to them after 1900. Frege, for his part, was never convinced of the reliability of Hilbert's methods, and held until the end that the latter's consistency and independence proofs were fatally flawed.""(SEP). ""Frege felt that his view represented a traditional understanding of this notion, and that Hilbert's departure from this understanding led to a confusion about axioms that undermined many of the sorts of results, in particular, the independence of the axioms of geometry, that Hilbert saw as major mathematical achievements. Symptomatic of Hilbert's confusion, according to Frege, was Hilbert's claiming that axioms could serve to define"" the reason that this is a confusion, according to Frege, is that axioms and definitions are statements of wholly different types."" (Antonelli, Frege's New Science).Friedrich Ludwig Gottlob Frege (1848 - 1925) was a German mathematician, but his main contributions lie in his becoming a logician and a philosopher, who influenced the fields of logic and analytic philosophy immensely. Together with Wittgenstein, Russel and Moore, Frege is considered the founder of analytic philosophy, and a main founder of modern mathematical logic. In the preface of the ""Principia Mathematica"" Russell and Whitehead state that ""In all questions of logical analysis our chief debt is to Frege"" (p. VIII). His influence on 20th century philosophy has been deeply profound, especially in the English speaking countries from the middle of the 20th century and onwards"" in this period most of his works were translated into English for the first time.The philosophical papers of Frege were published in Germany in scholarly journals, which were barely read outside of German speaking countries. The first collections of his writings did not appear until after the Second World War, and Frege was little known as a philosopher during his lifetime. He greatly influenced the likes of Russel, wittgenstein and Carnap, though, and bears a great responsibility for the turn modern philosophical thought has taken. Due to his contributions to the philosophy of language, analytic philosophy could be founded as it were. Instead of answering the question about meaning, Frege here sets out to explore the foundations of arithmetic, beginning with questions such as ""What is a number?"" In his solutions the answer to the question of meaning could also be found, though, and he permitted himself ""the hope that even the philosophers, if they examine what I have written without prejudice, will find in it something of use to them."" (p. XIi - Introduction). ‎

‎This set comprises the entire ""Logische Untersuchungen"" in the first English language translations. In the foreword to ""Compound Thoughts"", the translator notes: ""This article, entitled ""Logische Untersuchungen. Dritter Teil: Gedankenfüge"", was published in the ""Beiträge zur Philosophie des deutschen Idealismus, III (1923), 36-51. The first two parts of these ""logical investigations"" were ""Der Gedanke"" (Beiträge I (1819), trans. ""The Thought"" in MIND LXV (1956) ) and ""Die Verneinung"" (Beiträge I (1919), trans. ""Negation"" in Geach and Black (ed.) ""Translations from the Philosophical Writings of Gottlob Frege.""). The three articles that constitute the Logical Investigations are some of the most important, influential and widely discussed of Frege's philosophical papers. In 1875 the entire ""Logical Investigations"" appeared together in English translation for the first time. It was Frege's wish that these three articles were viewed as a whole and published together under the title of ""Logische Untersuchungen"", now considered a work of the utmost importance. These three volumes also comprise many other articles by Frege in the first English translations (in Translations from the Philosophical Writings of Gottlob Frege) as well as original contributions by P.T. Geach: ""On Frege's Way Out"" (in Mind Vol. LXV, No. 259. and ""Mr. Strawson on Symbolic and Traditional Logic"" (in Mind Vol. LXXII, No. 285).Friedrich Ludwig Gottlob Frege (1848 - 1925) was a German mathematician, but his main contributions lie in his becoming a logician and a philosopher, who influenced the fields of logic and analytic philosophy immensely.

‎The rare first edition with a handwritten presentation-inscription from Frege (""Freundschaftlichst/ überreicht vom/ Verfasser."") of this pioneering work of modern logic, which constitutes the starting point of analytic philosophy, of the philosophy of mathematics, and of logicism. This cornerstone of modern logic was pivotal to the development of the two main disciplines: the foundation of mathematics and the foundation of philosophy, and with it, Frege founded the discipline of logicism. The work profoundly influenced Russell and Wittgenstein, who both used Frege's ""The Foundations of Arithmetic"" as a steppingstone for their own work (e.g. In the preface of the ""Principia Mathematica"" Russell and Whitehead state that ""In all questions of logical analysis our chief debt is to Frege"" (p. VIII).).Frege presentation-copies are of the utmost scarcity and hardly ever enter the market. ""The Foundations of Arithmetic"" arguably constitutes Frege's main work, as it is here that he expounds the central notions of his philosophy while severely and effectively criticizing his predecessors and contemporaries. It is here that he deals with the actual goal of all his thought, namely TO BUILD MATHEMATICS AS AN EXTENSION OF LOGIC. The book represents the first philosophically sound discussion of the concept of number in Western civilization, and it profoundly influenced developments in the philosophy of mathematics and in general ontology.Beginning thus: ""When we ask someone what the number one is, or what the symbol ""I"" means, we get as a rule the answer ""Why, a thing"". And if we go on to point out that the proposition ""the number is a thing"" is not a definition, because it has the definite article on one side and the indefinite on the other, or that it only assigns the number one to the class of things, without stating which thing it is, then we shall very likely be invited to select something for ourselves - anything we please - to call one.""... (""F.o.A"" Introduction), Frege goes on to argue that number is something connected with an assertion concerning a concept - and essential for the notion of number is that of equality of a number. The definition that he settled upon, and which became of fundamental importance to the development of modern logic and the foundations of philosophy and mathematics was ""The number which belongs to the concept ""F"" is the extension of the concept of being equal to the concept ""F""."""" here, equality of concepts is understood as the existence of a one-to-one correspondence between their extensions. """"Foundations of Arithmetic"" (1884) provided an impressive definition of number in logical terms, after having criticized several empiricist, formalist and psychologistic approaches to mathematics. The definition was constructed in terms of properties of concepts rather than through classes. Thus, the number of a class was introduced as the number which applies to a given concept, and this last as the extension of the concept ""equinumerous with the given concept"", which can be defined in terms of bijective correspondence between sets."" (Grattan-Guinness I: p. 621). ""The name of Frege has become one of the most honoured in the history of mathematics. The central feature of the book is the development of the definition of number. There can be no doubt about the greatness of this work"" (W.H. McCrea - review of the English translation).""Its epochal character in the attempt to put mathematical concepts on a rigorously logical basis has been realized in this country from the beginning of this century, thanks to the writings of Russell and Whitehead."" (The Times Literary Supplement - review of the English translation). ""The modern philosophy of mathematics is characterized by the fact that various schools have been formed to overcome the difficulties occasioned by the antinomies. The oldest of these schools is LOGICISM and goes back to FREGE, one of the most significant logicians of all times."" (Stegmüller, p. 326). ‎

‎First edition. In this paper Frege eagerly defended his conceptual notation against Peano's. Though Frege preceded both Schröder and Peano, neither paid much attantion to Frege's work. This neglet has been attributed to Frege's repulsive symbolism. (See Cajori: A History of Mathematical Notations, paragraph 687). Modern notation in logic originates mainly from Peano's system.‎
