Other landmarks were an address by Montague to a conference held at UCLA in 1955, Prior and Meredith's property calculus of 1956, lectures by Smiley in Cambridge in1957 (Smiley pursued an algebraic approach), Kanger (1957), Hintikka

Hintikka was perhaps the first to stress the importance of a semantical approach to the tenses.

Hintikka had been stimulated by the latter's proposals for the wide application of modal logic (see the next section) and had come to appreciate the possibility of applying modal notions to the study of the logic of time before he read of Prior's sophisticated work in

During the early 1960s Hintikka travelled regularly between Helsinki and California and his ideas on tense influenced a number of logicians working in California, in particular Dana Scott.

In order to address these issues more efficiently, Rantala proposed to consider modal frames involving non-standard worlds which, despite being logically impossible, can be seen as viable epistemic alternatives by imperfect cognitive agents (an idea partly anticipated in Hintikka 1975).

(See Becker 1933, Lukasiewicz 1957, Rescher 1974, van Rijen 1989, Patterson 1995, Thom 1996 and Nortmann 1996 for such attempts, and see Hintikka 1973 and Lagerlund 2000 for critical reflections on these attempts.) 2.

Prior's work was heavily influenced by both Hintikka and Kripke, and by the idea that the truth of tense-logical formulas is relative to world-states or temporal stages of the world; these are the tense-theoretic analogues of the timeless possible worlds of ordinary modal logic.
