Frontmatter -- SOURCES -- CONTENTS -- BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE -- Jerzy Perzanowski – Real Man and Real Philosopher -- Preface -- Jerzy Perzanowski’s Way to the Monadology -- Art of Philosophy -- In Praise of Philosophy -- Reasons for Monodeism -- Towards Combination Metaphysics -- Ontological Melioration -- Locative Ontology -- In Search of Ontological Conditions for Emergence -- Towards Psycho-ontology -- Modal Logics of Truth and Falsity -- Classical (Modal) Logics of the Square of Oppositions -- Combination Semantics for Intensional Logics, Makings and Their Use in Combination Semantics -- A Profile of Masonic Synthesis -- Bibliography
Summary: Jerzy Perzanowski’s ideas were based on an original blend of logic and ontology in what he called onto/logic, where the slash is meant to suggest a "ient of ontology by logic. Perzanowski began as a logician, his early works being on modal logic, then gradually shifted his interest to “logical philosophy”, meaning not so much philosophy of logic as philosophy informed by logic. Perzanowski was a rare breed of analytical philosopher who thought that a philosophical “theory of everything” was worthwhile. In this systematic spirit, he began with method. He presented his “method of total analysis and synthesis” quite simply: reduce the object of research to its simplest possible constituents, and then combine them in some way. Better still, combine them in every possible way, thereby producing a space of possibilities analogous to (and in certain cases identical with) the logical space. Thus, analysis and synthesis differ from a trivial disassembly and reassembly.
