Abstract

Ralph Strode was an English logician (fl. second half of the fourteenth century), a Master of Arts (Oxon.), and an author of a Logica in six treatises, whose manuscripts were soon dispersed, surviving with varying degrees of success. The treatise on Consequentie became a textbook at Padua University in the late fifteenth century and was published various times, sometimes with the one on Obligationes, and often with some commentaries by Italian logicians.
