Lambert of Auxerre
Lambert of Auxerre was a medieval 13th century logician best known for writing the book "Summa Lamberti" or simply "Logica" [1] in the mid 1250s which became an authoritative textbook on logic in the Western tradition.[2] He was a Dominican in the Dominican house at Auxerre. His contemporaries were Peter of Spain, William of Sherwood, and Roger Bacon.[3]
