From the introduction by Máté Szabó
This bibliography collects sources in English about the history of logic in Eastern Europe.
Hence, most papers, collections and books are secondary sources. Primary sources are included only if they are collections of essays (mostly) from Eastern European scholars, are complete books on logic by an Eastern European scholar, or are their collected (or selected) works.
'Logic' is understood rather broadly. That is, it includes not only mathematical logic, but philosophical logic, automated theorem proving and other strongly connected fields as well. Papers that focus on philosophy of science or education, etc., are included in this list only if a signifcant part of the paper is devoted to logic.
To make the document more comprehensible, papers are gathered together by countries or regions. The first section contains papers which address the history of logic in Eastern Europe as a whole, or at least several countries of it. It seemed reasonable to present the papers on/from former Czechoslovakia and former Yugoslavia in one section. On the other hand, former members of the Soviet Union, such as the Baltic countries and Ukraine are presented separately, while the papers addressing logic in the Soviet Union as a whole are collected together with those about Russia.
The presentation of names is not entirely unified as of the moment; they appear here as they do on the websites of the sources. Please excuse any misspellings and let me know of them.
In those cases where a book has two publication dates, e.g. 1951/1988, the first one is its original date of publication while the second is the date of the first edition in English.
Since some collections of essays are included, in certain cases I found it to be helpful to list selected essays from these collections as well.
I would like to continuously expand this bibliography. If you know of any items that are not in the list currently, or have any suggestions, please contact me at www.mate@gmail.com
