Has Quine really proved that the borderline between analytic and synthetic sentences is not exactly defined
Materna, Pavel
As soon as we do logical analysis of natural language we can exactly distinguish analytic sentences from the synthetic (empirical) ones. Quine's criticism can be refuted because he has not accepted logical semantics and his objections have been articulated from the pragmatic viewpoint.
Syntetické pojmy a priori
Duží, M. ; Materna, Pavel
Concepts are explicated as objective procedures ("constructions" in transparent intensional logic). All mathematical concepts are a priori. Analytic mathematical concepts are effective procedures that compute some recursive functions. Synthetic mathematical concepts either identify a non-recursive function or identify a recursive function in a non-effective way. There are more synthetic concepts a priori than analytic concepts a priori.
Synthetic Concepts a priori
Materna, Pavel
The rational core of Kant's claim that there are synthetic judgments a priori can be formulated as follows: some a priori (first of all mathematical) concepts cannot effectively determine their object.
