ID: ancient-greek-logicians

Ancient Greek logicians were philosophers and thinkers in ancient Greece who studied the principles of reasoning and argumentation. This intellectual tradition primarily emerged in the 5th and 4th centuries BCE and laid the groundwork for formal logic as we understand it today. The most notable figure in Ancient Greek logic is Aristotle (384–322 BCE), who is often considered the father of formal logic. He developed the syllogism, a form of deductive reasoning that involves drawing conclusions from premises.
