About this Item

ix, 50 p.; 24.5 cm. (Foundations of language. Supplementary series ; v. 2) `The aim of this monograph is to expound the conceptions of temporalized modality at issue in various Arabic logical texts. I claim to have been able to make good logical sense of doctrines of which even the later Arab logicians themselves came to despair. In the process, a substantially new area of the history of logic has come into a clear view.' -- Appendix A. The heretofore untranslated sections of al-Qazwini al-Katibi's Al-Risalah al-shamsiyyah, p. 39-45. -- Appendix B. A fragment of Galen's lost treatise "On Possibility" p. 46-48. -- Index of names, p. 49; subject index, p. 50. -- 13 tables plot the modal relationships for different types of logical propositions. As new green and white boards in orig. glassine wrapper.
