von Wright and Hintikka on Modal Logic 1951–1962
Abstract A variety of modal logics were developed in Helsinki during the 50s. Alethic, epistemic, and deontic systems with quantified extensions were studied both from syntactic and semantic viewpoints in a series of publications by Georg Henrik von Wright and his student Jaakko Hintikka. This paper surveys and critically assesses these contributions.
