The emergence of first-order logic
To most mathematical logicians working in the 1980s, first-order logic is the proper and natural framework for mathematics. Yet it was not always so. In 1923, when a young Norwegian mathematician… Expand

Beyond first-order logic: the historical interplay between mathematical logic and axiomatic set theory
What has been the historical relationship between set theory and logic? On the one hand, Zermelo and other mathematicians developed set theory as a Hilbert-style axiomatic system. On the other hand,… Expand

Hilbert on the Infinite: The Role of Set Theory in the Evolution of Hilbert's Thought
Abstract Although Hilbert created no new set-theoretic theorems, he had a profound effect on the development of set theory by his advocacy of its importance. This article explores Hilbert's… Expand

Early history of the Generalized Continuum Hypothesis: 1878 - 1938
TLDR
GCH arose from Cantor's Continuum Hypothesis in the work of Peirce, Jourdain, Hausdorff, Tarski, and how GCH was used up to Godel's relative consistency result. Expand

The axiomatization of linear algebra: 1875-1940
Modern linear algebra is based on vector spaces, or more generally, on modules. The abstract notion of vector space was first isolated by Peano (1888) in geometry. It was not influential then, nor… Expand
