  1. Peano e la filosofia della matematica.Enrico Pasini - 2004 - In Elisa Gallo - Livia Giacardi - Clara Silvia Roero (ed.), Conferenze E Seminari 2003-2004. Associazione Subalpina Mathesis. pp. 203-220.
    It is well known that Peano had a reluctant attitude towards philosophy, including philosophy of mathematics. Some scholars have suggested the existence of an 'implicit' philosophy, without being able to describe it. In this paper a first attempt is done to reconstruct, if not a general philosophy of mathematics, at least Peano' epistemology of mathematics and its relation to contemporary positions.

  • Peano on Symbolization, Design Principles for Notations, and the Dot Notation.Dirk Schlimm - 2021 - Philosophia Scientiae 25:95-126.
    Peano was one of the driving forces behind the development of the current mathematical formalism. In this paper, we study his particular approach to notational design and present some original features of his notations. To explain the motivations underlying Peano's approach, we first present his view of logic as a method of analysis and his desire for a rigorous and concise symbolism to represent mathematical ideas. On the basis of both his practice and his explicit reflections on notations, we discuss (...)
