Johann Heinrich Lambert (1728–1777)
was a German philosopher, physicist, astronomer, and mathematician who wrote about alethiology, or the doctrine of truth, in his 1764 work Neues Organon. In Alethiology, Lambert focused on the nature and function of basic concepts that are used to build logical propositions that are true. He also considered the difference between truth, falsehood, and absurdity. To do this, Lambert imagined an ideal realm where all truths are possible and all truth values are distributed across all possible sentences. He then used proofs to develop “formally constitutive rules” that make up this realm. For example, he argued that all truths can cohere with each other, that every falsehood contradicts a truth, and that each truth has something that distinguishes it from all others.
Lambert was a self-taught polymath who influenced his fellow academics and public debate during the Enlightenment era. He was also the first to prove that π is irrational.
