I’m a big fan of diagrams.  Most of mine are done by hand, but I have some digital ones that are here.  All of them are created with Visio Pro. 

 

 

Frege’s Begriffsschrift

 

The diagram of the inferential structure of Frege’s Begriffsschrift is the oldest digital diagram I have.  The numbers refer to the propositions of the Begriffsschrift. 

 

Begriffsschrift – one version of the diagram

Begriffsschrift – a version that is “zoomed in” more

Begriffsschrift – the original Visio file

Begriffsschrift – the jpeg file

 

 

Hofstadter’s Gödel, Escher, Bach

 

I also have a diagram of the “semantic network” or Hofstadter’s Gödel, Escher, Bach.

Truth Project

 

I am currently working on a diagram of my project on truth that was the focus of my dissertation and promises to be the focus of the papers I put out for the next year or so. 

 

Truth Project  a diagram of the truth project with active nodes and zoom box (I don’t think Firefox supports this feature, but Explorer should).  You can click on a node of the diagram and it will take you to a diagram of that node.  Each node corresponds roughly to a paper that has been or is in the process of being pulled from my dissertation. Right now only the ‘Fragmentary Theories of Truth” node and the “Internalizability” node work (they’re the only parts of the project for which I have functioning diagrams), but I’ll add more soon.  Notice that the diagram of the “Fragmentary Theories of Truth” node is a diagram of the “Fragmentary Theories of Truth” paper (which is under Research); the diagram of the “Internalizability” node is a diagram of the “Truth and Internalizability” paper (which is under Research).

Papers – a very rough table of the papers and how they relate to the dissertation (which is available under Research). 

Truth Project – a version of the truth project diagram without the zoom box or active nodes. 

Fragmentary Theories of Truth – a version of the “Fragmentary Theories of Truth” node.

Internalizability – a version of the “Internalizability” node.
