Resumo
In this paper I first reconstruct the main steps of the development of Frege’s logicism; along the way, I point out possible solutions of a number of interpretative puzzles about Frege’s procedure raised in the scholarly literature. Next, I discuss some problems faced by the contemporary reconstruction of Frege’s arithmetic embraced by, among others, Crispin Wright. Finally, I point out what seems to me to be missing from the contemporary discussion about Frege’s rejection of Hume’s Law as basic law of arithmetic.
