Abstractiones

Herausgeber: Ebbesen, Sten; Ashworth, E Jennifer; Sirridge, Mary

Beschreibung

The Abstractiones is of great historical interest because it gives a window onto how generations of British scholars learned a uniform approach to logic and reasoning from basics up to more sophisticated strategies in modal logic and quantification. It gives a systematic introduction to the techniques and terminology found in medieval philosophy.
