Abstract

The essay to understand the genealogic tree of the general logic, especially in the XVII and XVIII Century and, particularly, in the European Academy, leads us to a research on the comprehension of this discipline in Christian Wolff’s philosophy. That study, in its turn, shows us that Wolff’s influences are both the “Logic of Ideas” represented by the Messieurs of Port-Royal and John Locke, and the scholastic tradition represented, notably, by Leibniz. In this paper, we will retrace this double influence with the aim of accentuate the Leibnizian heritage in the comprehension of the general logic by Christian Wolff.

Summary

Introduction

The essay to understand the genealogic tree of the general logic, especially in the XVII and XVIII Century and, in the European Academy, leads us to a research on the comprehension of this discipline in Christian Wolff’s philosophy. Vejamos brevemente algumas passagens do Livro IV dos Novos Ensaios sobre o Entendimento Humano de Leibniz a fim de traçar algumas características de sua compreensão do papel da lógica, para registrarmos aquilo que estamos compreendendo como uma possível herança deixada em Christian Wolff12.
