  A common objection to the definition of intuitionistic implication in the
Proof Interpretation is that it is impredicative. I discuss the history of that
objection, argue that in Brouwer's writings predicativity of implication is
ensured through parametric polymorphism of functions on species, and compare
this construal with the alternative approaches to predicative implication of
Goodman, Dummett, Prawitz, and Martin-L\"of.
