    aboutlogic #04 | Graham Priest – Working with Contradictions & Paraconsistent Logics
    Jan 28 2026
    Today we’re joined by Graham Priest from New York, a philosopher who also studied mathematics and is well known for many things. In particular, we will talk about contradictory logics – logics where we can work with a contradiction without being able to prove everything. We’ll also discuss non-standard topics, including non-standard arithmetic and non-standard set theory, and how all of this is philosophically motivated.
