A faithful reading of Frege's ideographic notations makes terms and well-formed formulas disjoint categories. Where o ! is a function term, b o ! is a well-formed formula. We can at last read Frege in the original. And when we do, new solutions to the many problems of interpreting his philosophy are revealed. GREGORY LANDINI Professor at the University of Iowa, USA.
