This chapter lays the syntactic foundations for the book, covering topics in both first-order and higher-order logic. It introduces untyped lambda-terms and their properties, including beta-conversion and beta-normal forms. The chapter then defines types, signatures, and typed terms, restricting the typing judgment to beta-normal formulas. Finally, it introduces the concept of formulas and sequents, which are central to the proof-theoretic approach discussed in the book. Bibliographic notes provide references for further reading on these foundational concepts.
