What is elementary logic?

independence-friendly logic as the true core area of logic

Jaakko Hintikka

pp. 301-326

Abstract

My ultimate aim in this paper* is to show that conventional wisdom is seriously wrong when it comes to logic. I want to challenge the traditional ideas as to what the most basic part of logic is like and how it ought to be studied. What is more, I will actually prove that these widely accepted ideas are mistaken.
