Gottlob Frege
November 8, 1848 – July 26, 1925
Friedrich Ludwig Gottlob Frege was a German mathematician, logician, and philosopher, widely recognized as a founder of modern logic and a pivotal figure in the foundations of mathematics. He is broadly considered the father of analytic philosophy due to his seminal writings on the philosophy of language and mathematics. Though largely overlooked during his time, his work was later introduced to subsequent generations of thinkers, cementing his indispensable contributions. Frege's approach is characterized by profound conceptual analysis and a relentless pursuit of rigor in logic and mathematics.
