This special issue contains three papers on evolutions in logic during the so-called ‘post-medieval’ period (roughly the years 1450–1700). The papers discuss the following topics: (1) traditions of logic in the British Isles during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries; (2) approaches to validity in medieval and post-medieval logic; and (3) scholastic and humanist interpretations of the prologue to Galen’s Art of Medicine. All papers provide an original contribution to research on post-medieval logic, which to date is still in the early stages. Together they testify to the great diversity of the discourse on logic during the period under consideration, something that has not been sufficiently appreciated in the scholarship.

“后中世纪逻辑研究”简介

本期特刊包含三篇关于所谓“后中世纪”时期（大约 1450-1700 年）逻辑演变的论文。这些论文讨论了以下主题：(1) 16 和17 世纪不列颠群岛的逻辑传统；(2) 中世纪和后中世纪逻辑的有效性方法；(3) 对盖伦医学艺术序言的学术和人文主义解释。所有论文都对后中世纪逻辑的研究做出了原创性贡献，该研究迄今为止仍处于早期阶段。他们一起证明了在所考虑的时期内关于逻辑的话语的巨大多样性，这在学术界并没有得到足够的重视。
