This volume presents translations of key writings by the great 19th-century philosopher Bernard Bolzano, on what is now called grounding, a notion of prime importance in metaphysics and philosophy of explanation. These writings, some of them translated for the first time, are accompanied by new essays on this area of Bolzano's work.
