This manuscript volume, titled "Institutiones Philosophiae Logica," was created by Peter Martial Bardy (in Latin, Petrus Martialis Bardy). It was likely created while Bardy was a student and is written entirely in Latin. The text refers to philosophers René Descartes, David Hume, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau and is illustrated. Includes chapters on logic, the origin of thought, the relationship between thought and perception, divine revelation, and memory; many chapters contain axioms and rules. Concludes: "Finis Logicae Dec. 25, 1816 Petrus Martialis Bardy."
