The aim of this paper is to present and analyse the views on logic of the members of the so-called Cracow Circle, namely the Dominican Father Józef (Innocenty) M. Bocheński, Rev. Jan Salamucha, and Jan Franciszek Drewnowski. They tried to apply the methods of modern formal/mathematical logic to philosophical and theological problems. In particular, they attempted to modernise contemporary Thomism (the trend which was then prevailing) by employing logical tools. The influence of Jan Łukasiewicz, the co-founder of the Warsaw School of Logic will be also discussed.

The Cracow Circle aimed at adapting the contemporary achievements of logic to the fields of Catholic philosophy and theology. The Circle was formed by J.M. Bocheński, J. Salamucha, J.F. Drewnowski, and B. Sobociński. The Circle was active in the 1930s. A special event in its history was the 3rd Polish Philosophical Congress in Cracow in 1936. During that Congress a special meeting for representatives of Christian philosophy was organized in order to discuss the relationship between Catholic thought and contemporary logic. Father Bocheński returned to the ideas of the Circle in his article, Die fünf Wege, where he analyzed the quinque viae. A revised and extended version of that work became part of his book, Gottes Dasein und Wesen. Logische Studien zur Summa Theolgiae I, qq. 2-11. In that book, Father Bocheński discusses the subsequent questions from the Summa Theologiae and analyzes Kant’s critical commentary against the cosmological argument The first chapter of that volume is titled Program of Studies on God. The text structures the research studies presented in the book, but additionally, it points to other research goals. The aim of the present paper is to present Father Bocheński’s program of studies on God, showing those postulates of the program that were realized by their author and their relationship with the scientific goals of the Cracow Circle.

The Cracow Circle was a group of four Polish philosophers and logicians (Salamucha, Bocheński, Drewnowski, Sobociński) connected with Lvov-Warsaw School. They tried to apply the modern logic to a Christian thought. This application first needed explication what the mathematical logic really is-not a science connected with the Aristotelian abstraction of the second degree but formal science unnecessary in a strict reasoning and defining. Then they showed how important was always exactness in Christian thought and wrote some papers in which the modern logic was used in different issues (maybe the most famous was Salamucha’s analysis of Thomas’ proof ex motu of the existence of God). Cracow Circle was also strongly interested in relations between science and religion, they tried to show and explore new ways to develop Christian, especially catholic, views of the world, philosophy and theology. Very interesting was Drewnowski’s philosophical program and its applications in various problems in philosophy, theology, sociology etc.

In this essay I will shortly present the main characteristics of Joseph M. Bocheński’s OP translation of Thomas Aquinas’s treatise De ente et essentia. First of all, I will present the circumstances of the translation. Aquinas’s. De ente et essentia was published in the fall in 1955 in the journal “Seminary Materials for the Use of Students of Christian Philosophy”. It was a student magazine created for the internal use of students of philosophy at the Catholic University of Lublin, who thus provided themselves with access to philosophical texts needed for individual classes at the Faculty of Philosophy of the Catholic University of Lublin. However, the reader should be warned that the presented edition is incomplete: of the 81 paragraphs of Aquinas’s work, which Bocheński an-nounces in his introduction, the typescript contains only the first 41. It should be also emphasized that Bocheński perceives De ente et essentia as a ontological work. The interpretation of this treatise can be seen in its entirety, as well as in numerous footnotes that place De ente et essentia within ontology, semantics and logic. Finally, I will emphasize the influence of the Lviv-Warsaw school on Neotomism in general, and on the way of studying philosophy by Bo-cheński in particular. Bocheński’s contacts with representatives of the Lviv-Warsaw school date back to the 1920s: during this period, Jan Salamucha studied theology in Warsaw. During his studies, he met Jan Lukasiewicz, who later became the promoter of his doctoral dissertation on the concept of Aristotle’s modality (he obtained the title in 1927). Then, in 1930, Salamucha wrote an extensive work on the issue of deduction in Aristotle and Thomas Aquinas. At first, Bocheński was a critical reviewer of this work, but soon he decided that logic should serve the Thomism. The presence of analytical philosophy, logic and semantics are noticeable in the entirety of Bocheński’s translation.
