'''Osmund Lewry''' (1929-1987) was a Dominican who made significant contributions to the history of logic and the philosophy of language in the thirteenth century.  Lewry studied mathematical logic under Lejewski and Prior at Manchester (1961-2). From 1962-7 he taught the philosophy of language and logic at Hawkesyard.  He was assigned to the Oxford Blackfriars in 1967.  Dissatisfaction with teaching led him to work for an Oxford D.Phil on the logic teaching of [[Robert Kilwardby]].  In 1979 he began the study of the history of grammar, logic and rhetoric at Oxford in the period 1220-1320.  In 1979 he went to the Pontifical Institute of Mediaeval Studies in Toronto first as a Research Associate, then as a Senior Fellow.
