Abstract

This is the first of four panels on 'What Is the Matter of/with Medieval Philosophy?', bringing together papers addressing the subject matter of medieval philosophy, including how subfields of philosophy were demarcated; how philosophy was separated from other disciplines; how medieval philosophy is separated from (and continuous with!) ancient and early modern philosophy. This panel on the subject matter of logic brings together three papers on (1) medieval accounts of the subject matter of logic; the use of the notion of 'verificare' in medieval logic, semantics, and epistemology; and the role of logic in theology and philosophy.
