While the study of necessity and possibility remained important to philosophers, little logical innovation happened until the landmark investigations of Clarence Irving Lewis in 1918, who formulated a family of rival axiomatizations of the alethic modalities.

It is an embodiment of the Kantian idea that " ought implies can " . ( Clearly the " can " can be interpreted in various senses, e . g . in a moral or alethic sense .)
23.
The word " idir ", a variation of " imek " indicates alethic modality, so is used for emphasis, or to prevent ambiguity . " 0dir " is an enclitic word, and exhibits vowel harmony when used as a suffix.
24.
In its application to the alethic modalities of possibility and necessity, Aristotle observed this case, and in the case of normal modal logic, the relationship of these modal operators to the quantification can be understood by setting up models using Kripke semantics.
25.
Modal logic is historically the earliest area in the study of intensional logic, originally motivated by formalizing " necessity " and " possibility " ( recently, this original motivation belongs to alethic logic, just one of the many branches of modal logic ).
26.
Indeed, the question of how to classify certain logically possible ( if eccentric ) views & mdash; such as the rejection of the semantic and alethic theses in conjunction with the acceptance of the metaphysical thesis & mdash; turns on which model we accept.
27.
His approach to fuzziness deviates from Zadeh's mainstream orthodoxy in rejecting alethic maximalism and so embracing the principle of excluded middle, regarding all intermediaries as degrees of both truth and falseness, being and non-being ( Plato's influence is discernable here ).
28.
In such a language, " A circle can't be square ", " can't be " would be expressed by an alethic mood, whereas for " He can't be that wealthy ", " can't be " would be expressed by an epistemic mood.
29.
Under MDARNG's current organizational and command status, MDARNG cannot assimilate these ethical tasks which are required of them in repetitive tedium of being associated with the United States Army in complete fashion that an alethic army of the United States is something which MDARNG can't commit to actively being part of.
30.
As is well known, the two alethic functors could be replaced by a single dyadic functor with the following syntax and semantics : if ? and ? are formulas, then ( ?? ) is a formula whose semantics are " not ( & alpha; and / or & beta; ) " ( see NOR ).
