Why the reductive title:
6.2 Self-evident and analytical truths
instead of: Which kind of a theory organization? or: Is it sufficient an
axiomatic organization? i.e. the question underlined by Beth even in
Foundation of Mathematics 1959, van Heijenoort in Encyclopedia of Philosophy
Macmillan, and Hintikka in Phil. Topics vol 17 and answered in the negative?
Maybe the above title is also misleading: why the alternative to analytic
truths is "self-evident" truths? The two terms of the celebrated polemics
Poincaré-Hilbert were "intuitive" and "formal".
Best regards
