Logical Investigations, Volume 1 by Edmund Husserl
Prolegomena to Pure Logic
A rigorous critique of psychologism, this volume defends the autonomy and a priori status of logic, arguing that logical laws possess ideal, objective validity rather than deriving from empirical facts about human thinking. It differentiates the normative aims of logic from the descriptive methods of psychology, rebuts relativistic accounts of truth and validity, and clarifies notions such as evidence, justification, and the nature of logical laws. In doing so, it establishes the framework for a pure, theoretical logic that serves as a secure foundation for scientific knowledge.
