Faust Vrančić and the Aristotelianism in Logic

Srećko Kovač ; Institut za filozofiju, Zagreb, Hrvatska

Abstract

The article deals with the relationship between Faust Vrančić's (1551-1617) »new logic« and the renaissance aristotelian logic. This problem is examined, at the first place, through the research of the relationship between Vrančić's and the aristotelian Dominis' concept of logic (as M. A. de Dominis is, most probably, the author of the remarks at the end of the 2nd ed. of Vrančić's »Logic«). Vrančić's and Dominis' polemics is then put in the context of the two main renaissance aristotelian models of logic: the logic of the »Paduan school« (exampled by J. Zabarella) and the scholastic logic (exampled by the »jesuit school«). The main topics considered thereby are: the essence of logic, the subject-matter of logic and the problem of method. In addition to it, Vrančić's concept of science is also discussed.
