For those who haven't dropped in for a visit, the Logic Museum is a
growing collection of primary sources in the history of logic, with a
particular focus on the early twentieth century period in England, on
nineteenth century 'class theory' and medieval texts on logic and
semantics.

The museum is here http://uk.geocities.com/frege@btinternet.com

The latest exhibits are (1) a parallel Latin English translation of
Ockham's theory of past and future tenses, in chapter 7 of book II of
his Summa Logicae.  Here

(2) An extract from HWB Joseph's book on Logic published in 1906.  This
is a criticism of Mill's theory of accidental predication, understanding
of which is key to understanding developments in logic in the nineteenth
century (in my humble view, of course).
