Tractatus de Philosophia et Psychologia
Abstract
Tractatus de Philosophia et Psychologia is a systematic philosophical work composed of a series of rigorously structured treatises addressing core problems in epistemology, metaphysics, philosophy of mind, philosophy of language, logic, and philosophical psychology. Written in a formal, axiomatic style reminiscent of Wittgenstein's Tractatus, the book advances a unified account of knowledge, causation, explanation, meaning, and mental phenomena grounded in the concept of structural continuity and information transmission. Across its constituent tractates, the work develops original analyses of truth, belief, justification, inference, natural law, causation, counterfactuals, induction, and explanation, while offering sustained critiques of pragmatism, Humean regularity theories, counterfactual analyses of causation, possible-worlds semantics, intentionalism, and the deductive-nomological model of scientific explanation.
