    Join us for the online Logic Colloquium for a talk by Sara Uckelman (Durham):

    "What Problem Did Ladd-Franklin (Think She) Solve(d)?"

    Christine Ladd-Franklin is often hailed as a guiding star in the history of women in logic—not only did she study under C.S. Peirce and was one of the first women to receive a PhD from Johns Hopkins, she also, according to many modern commentators, solved a logical problem which had plagued the field of syllogisms since Aristotle. In this paper, we revisit this claim, posing and answering two distinct questions: Which
    logical problem did Ladd-Franklin solve in her thesis, and which problem did she \emph{think} she solved? We show that in neither case is the answer ``a long-standing problem due to Aristotle''. Instead, what Ladd-Franklin solved was a problem due to Jevons that was first articulated in the 19th century.
