Medieval Logic
Workshop organized by Rodrigio Guerizoli You can download here the poster As scholars are becoming more and more aware, one of logic’s most fruitful periods filed the five centuries between, roughly speaking, 1100 and 1600. This medieval tradition on logic exhibits an extraordinary richness extending its reach from creative reinterpretations of the syllogism, researches on the proprieties of the terms, logical consequence, inference, quantification, formalization, paradoxes, fallacies, to treatments of the relation between logic and natural languages. Since a couple of decades the material medieval logicians produced are being object of critical editions, on the basis of which new researches are on their way.
