Lwów–Warsaw school of logic

The Lvov -Warsaw School (Polish: SzkoĹ lwowsko - warszawska ) (also: Warsaw group, Warsaw School ) was an influential logical- philosophical school in the 20th century Poland. Kazimierz Twardowski laid her foundation, when he came to Lviv in 1895 and began to teach philosophy there. After the reestablishment of the Polish state many of their representatives changed to the University of Warsaw, where the school draws its double name.

Twardowski approaches are inspired by works of Franz Brentano, Robert Zimmerman, Bernard Bolzano, and of Edmund Husserl and Alexius Meinong. With the latter Twardowski was in scientific contact; this exchange promoted his interest in ontology, mereology and categorical grammar. He was inspired a scientific school of philosophy to found by Brentano; the influence of the Brentano school is felt to Alfred Tarski's generation.

The Lvov -Warsaw School was characterized by a broad approach to research in philosophy, logic, philosophy of science and language analysis. Their representatives worked out important contributions to mathematical logic, logical semantics, epistemology and formal ontology, etc.

This school has produced many outstanding logician and philosopher. Especially the first generation is well known: Jan Łukasiewicz, Stanisław Leśniewski, Tadeusz Kotarbiński, Kazimierz Ajdukiewicz, Tadeusz Czeżowski, Zygmunt Zawirski. Then Alfred Tarski was probably the most famous.

The Lvov -Warsaw School stood with other logical- philosophical circles in Europe in contact, such as the Vienna Circle and the Berlin Society for Empirical Philosophy. Together they have organized several International Congresses for the Unity of Science in the 1930s.
