Introduction to Medieval Logic (Hardcover, 2nd Revised edition)

Alexander Broadie explains the theories of truth and validity of the great logicians of the fourteenth century. He shows how far they advanced beyond the logic of Aristotle, and reveals that much of what seems characteristically twentieth-century logic was familiar long ago. He has extensively revised his text for this second edition, while preserving the character of the first. There are now fuller accounts of supposition of intentional contexts, and of medieval syllogistics, and the conclusion has been substantially expanded.
