                       Tarski on Logical Notions

Here in Buffalo, in  1973,  Tarski  gave  a  lecture  which  proposed  a
transformational  explication  of  the  concept  of logical notion.  His
explication can be viewed heuristically  as  carrying  Klein's  Erlangen
Programm  to  a geometrical limit and then generalizing beyond geometry.
An elementary and accessible partial exposition of the Erlangen Programm
is  included.  This meeting will present a recent edition of the lecture
together with commentary, summary, and introduction by the speaker.

                        Wednesday, September 17

                              SUNY Buffalo

               "Proofs, Deductions, Chains of Reasoning"

This talk begins with a brief review of the deductive  and  hypothetico-
deductive methods and then introduces the distinction between proofs and
deductions.  The core of the paper is a discussion of the logical,  his-
torical,  epistemic,  pragmatic, and heuristic ramifications of the dis-
tinction between proofs and deductions.
