Logic and Ancient Philosophy - A
People
Course director
Description
Aristotle's Prior and Posterior analytics. Aristotle created logic and developed it to a level of great sophistication. There was nothing there before; and it took more than two millennia for something better to come around. The astonishment experienced by readers of the Prior Analytics, the most important of Aristotle's works that present the discipline, is comparable to that of an explorer discovering a cathedral in a desert. This course is designed to be of interest to both the students who took the one on Aristotle's Categories and De Interpretatione in Spring 2026 and those who did not.
