In the history of thought, Per Martin-Löf is one of the names that keeps being returned to.
The record lists Per Martin-Löf as Swedish logician, philosopher, and mathematical statistician.
Per Martin-Löf was born at Stockholm in 1942. His recorded nationality is Sweden. He studied at Stockholm University.
Twentieth-century philosophy was marked by war, exile and ideology; many of its central figures wrote in flight or under censorship.
His academic posts were held at Stockholm University.
The recorded fields of work are mathematical logic.
The discipline keeps its dead in print, because the arguments are still open.
Recognition followed: Rolf Schock Prize in Logic and Philosophy (2020).
That the work was done from Sweden matters: philosophical traditions, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.
