'''Walter Burley''' (or Burleigh), c.1275-1344/5, was a [[medieval]] [[English people|English]] [[logician]]. He was a [[Master of Arts (Oxbridge)|Master of Arts]] at [[Oxford]] in 1301, and a [[fellow]] of [[Merton College]], [[Oxford]] until 1305. He studied theology in [[Paris]] from before 1310, and by c.1320 he was a [[doctor of theology]] at [[Paris]]. He was a fellow of the [[Sorbonne]] by 1324. After studying [[William of Ockham]]'s commentary on the [[Sentences]] of [[Peter Lombard]], Burley opposed Ockham on a number of points concerning logic and [[natural philosophy]].

== Life ==

== Work ==

His main work was the ''De Puritate Artis Logicae Tractatus Longior'', in which he covers such topics as the truth conditions for complex sentences, both [[truth-functional]] and [[modal]], as well as providing rules of inferences for different types of inferences. He was one of the first logicians to recognize the priority of the [[propositional logic|propositional calculus]] over the [[first-order logic|predicate calculus]], despite the fact that the latter had been the main focus of logicians up until this period.
