Where should I start with philosophical logic? I just started my math major, and I feel that I should be well-read on logic. I'm not looking for textbooks for mathematical logic -- I want philsophical logic. What books should I read if I've never read philosophy before?

phil logic is just baby tier mathematical logic as applied to philosophy.
>>
Susan Haack has a good book on the topic.

It's all so tedious.

The Greeks.

Thanks. I'll take a look at these
>>10012401
Which books? I don't want to have to read a fuck ton of irrelevant books just to reach the bits I'm interested in
>>
>>10012491
Don't read the greeks for philosophical logic, specially if you're already studying mathematics at a college level. If you read Haack's book, you'll most probably going to be interested in semantic interpretations of logic. I really urge you to a) learn the common Semantic theory of truth and then learn some Proof-theoretic semantics.

Read the sourcebook From Frege to Godel and you'll know everything you need to know.

>>10012357
Aristotle and Frege.

You should start with an intro textbook teaching you first order logic.

I use this because I'm told to by my professors. Im sure there are others that are just as good but you can find this online for free as pdfs

Parsons, Terence - "An Introduction to Symbolic Logic" (it might be exposition instead of introduction I cant remember)

Once you understand this you can start getting into, like others have said, the topics of semantics, theories of truth, and philosophy of language. You can also just keep moving forward with your logic with something like modal logic.

Enjoy yourself

Seconding this. Found out about Haack freshman year of undergrad actually.
