Resumo

The paper focuses on some logical and epistemological aspects of the notion of computation. The first part questions the Church-Turing thesis as a fundamental principle concerning the limits of computation and some of its consequences for Philosophy of Mind and Cognitive Science. The second part discusses one of the main presumptions of the traditional conception of computability, namely, its reliance on the absolute character of classical logic which is taken as an underlying framework.
