Pseudo-Elias

Logic

Pseudo-Elias, also called Pseudo-David, was the author of a set of lectures on logic, written in Ancient Greek, that form a commentary on Porphyry's Isagoge. Probably active around the year 600, though possibly as late as shortly before the University of Constantinople's closure in 726, the author's lectures survive in a number of medieval manuscripts, missing only their first seven lectures.
