Vicente Ferreira da Silva (January 10, 1916 – July 19, 1963) was a Brazilian logician,[1] mathematician, and philosopher. He was one of first men in Brazil history to write and have published an academic book in logic.[2]
Biography
First philosopher to study logic in Brazil, Vicente was an assistant to Willard Van Orman Quine.[3]
In his mature work, he sought to develop a systematic foundational philosophy based on Heidegger's work[4] and Schelling's philosophy of mythology.[5] Based on the myths, Vicente founded a kind of neopaganism.[6]
During his life, Vicente kept in touch and influenced thinkers like João Guimarães Rosa, Agostinho da Silva, Oswald de Andrade, Julian Marias, Miguel Reale, Saint-John Perse[7] and Vilém Flusser.[8]
He died in 1963 in a car accident.[9]
