Treatise on consequences
John Buridan, Stephen Read
The rediscovery of Aristotle in the late twelfth century led to a fresh development of logical theory, culminating in Buridan's crucial comprehensive treatment in the Treatise on Consequences. Buridan's novel treatment of the categorical syllogism laid the basis for the study of logic in succeeding centuries.

Also included is a translation of the Introduction (in French) to the 1976 edition of the Latin text by Hubert Hubien
