Allegations of Antihumanism and John Milton's Ramist "Artis Logicae."
Adams, John Charles.
Western Journal of Speech Communication, v53 n1 p1-12 Win 1989
Argues against Thomas O. Sloane's allegation that John Milton's "Artis Logicae," a commentary on Pierre de la Ramee's "Dialecticae libri duo," manifests antihumanism characteristics of Milton and Ramus. Reexamines Milton's account of probability, the links between Ramus and Cicero, and the roles Ramism played in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century England. (RAE)
