Abstract [eng] The lecture on logic, which an anonymous scholar from the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth delivered in 1612 at the University of Ingolstadt, is one of the oldest sources related to the teaching of logic in our region. The author reveals metaphysical assumptions and, while applying the rules of logic to practical examples, addresses essential political problems of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. This edition includes a fragment of a lecture delivered by Jacobus Ortiz in Poznań in 1591. In his logic, the Spanish scholar followed Suárez’s metaphysics and, more specifically, used the concept of mental being (ens rationis). He thus co-prepared the context in which Martin Smiglecki would write his Logica. Published in 1618 in Ingolstadt and several times reedited in Oxford, it was famous for its creative use of the concept of mental being.
