Abstract

FERREIRA, Anselmo Tadeu. A estrutura da lógica segundo Tomás de Aquino. Educação e Filosofia [online]. 2011, vol.25, n.50, pp.445-473. ISSN 1982-596X.

We intend to present in detail the prologus of the Thomas Aquinas’ commentary on Aristotle’s Posterior Analytics, the Expositio libri Posteriorum. In this prologus, that is, an introduction to the literal exposition which is to be made, the author situates Posterior Analytics in the structure of the Logic as a discipline. Making this, he presents, in a manner which he didn’t treat this anywhere, his proper account of logic in general, the way how this discipline is characterized as an art or as a science and how it is related to the process of human spirit, intellect and reason and how this structure corresponds to the Aristotelian opus known as the Organum.

Keywords : Medieval Philosophy; Medieval Logic; Thomas Aquinas.
