- Description:
- CCCC MS 244 is a collection of treatises on logic written in a cursive hand of the middle years of the fifteenth century, and was no doubt intended as a volume for university students. It contains a number of popular late medieval texts on the nature and purpose of logic as an intellectual discipline, including a version of William Heytesbury's (1313-80) Tractatus consequentiarum, the Introductiones naturalium attributed to Thomas Netter of Walden OCarm (d. 1430) and Martin the Englishman's Objectiones consequentiarum.
