摘要: This article provides the first comprehensive reconstruction and analysis of Hintikka’s attempt to obtain a measure information yield deductive inferences. The is detailed by necessity due originality contribution. will turn out be destructive. It dismisses distinction between surface depth as being any utility towards obtaining Hintikka right identify failure canonical theory give an account deductions scandal, however this demonstrates that his provide such fails. fails primarily because it applies only restricted set in polyadic predicate calculus, apply at all monadic calculus propositional calculus. Some corollaries these facts are number undesirable counterintuitive results concerning proposed relation linguistic meaning (and hence synonymy) with information. seen contradict stated aims, whilst others false. consequence problem inferences remains open one. proposal suggest purely syntactic approach abandoned favour intrinsically semantic
