These two papers by B.V. Birjukov on Frege expound the history of logic within the sphere of Soviet Studies. This translation is intended to ‘make accessible, for those who do not read Russian, a certainly original contribution to the rapidly increasing Fregean Bibliography.’ (Ignacio Angelilli)

Frege’s influence on Wittgenstein and Russell in particular cannot be overstated, and in his and Whitehead’s preface to the Principia Mathematica (1910) Russell declared that, ‘in all questions of logical analysis our chief debt is to Frege’.
