Comments on the first volume


The authors of these papers achieve in them a consistently high standard of scholarship, analysis and argument. All the papers are of the greatest philosophical interest, and promise well for the future of the journal.



The launching of a journal on the lines of PLA/LAHP is long overdue. Its thematic focus is set by a highly fruitful style of investigation in the history of philosophy that has now been cultivated with great fertility for several decades, and yet which has never had a vehicle of its own. This unfortunate omission is now happily remedied.



This well-planned new journal will stimulate those interested in logical analysis to engage with history, and those with historical interests to engage in logical analysis - to the benefit of both areas. I expect "Logical Analysis and History of Philosophy" to become the leading journal for the publication of such research.
