Greg will be in Taiwan delivering the 2025 Wendy Huang Lectures\, and these three sessions in the M&L seminar are his opportunity to give the lectures a preliminary outing. \nI have three aims for this set of lectures. Two are central\, and the third is incidental: \n\nTo give an account of what is so distinctive about logic\, insofar as logical notions have a grip on whatever can be said or thought.\nTo clarify the connections between logic and semantics\, the theory of meaning.\nThe product of these two aims is that I get to provide a philosophical prolegomena and a non-technical introduction to the more technical work I have done in my forthcoming manuscript Proof\, Rules and Meaning.\n\nToday\, I aim to show how this inferentialist semantics applies to issues of predication\, quantification and modality\, and thereby provides some distinctive insight into ‘possible worlds’ models for quantified modal logics.
