An extension of basic logic

Abstract
A logical calculus Κ was defined in a previous paper and then shown in a subsequent paper to contain within itself a representation of every constructively definable subclass of expressions of a certain infinite class U of expressions, where Κ itself is one such subclass. (The former paper will be referred to as BL and the latter paper as RC.) The calculus Κ was called a “basic calculus” and its theorems were thought of as expressing the asserted propositions of a “basic logic,” that is, of a logic within which is definable every constructively definable system of logic and indeed every constructively definable class or relation. The notion of constructive definability was essentially equated with the notion of recursive enumerability.
