これは上記飯田先生論文が大きく依拠している論文。半分読む。興味深い一節を引用する*1

The view that the most general notion of object has its home in formal logic […] / This outlook seems to me a characteristically modern one and may not appear in full-blown form before Frege. Its most important advocates in more recent times are Carnap and Quine. Speaking of objects just is using the linguistic devices of singular terms, predication, identity, and quantification to make serious statements.

なるほど、対象の観念をlogicによって規定しようとする考えは

Frege → Carnap → Quine

とくるわけか?
