	Petrus Ramus - LoveToKnow 1911 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		PETRUS RAMUS, or Pierre De La Ramee (1515-1572), French humanist, was born at the village of Cuth in Picardy in 1515, a member of a noble but impoverished family; his father was a charcoal-burner.
		Meanwhile Ramus, as graduate of the university, had opened courses of lectures; but his audacities drew upon him the hostility of the conservative party in philosophy and theology.
		Ramus also set the modern fashion of deducing the figures from the position of the middle term in the premises, instead of basing them, as Aristotle does, upon the different relation of the middle to the so-called major and minor term.

		Petrus Ramus, or Pierre de la Ramée (1515 - 1572), French humanist, was born at the village of Cuth in Picardy, a member of a noble but impoverished family: his father was a charcoal-burner.
		On the occasion of taking his degree (1536) he actually took as his thesis "Everything that Aristotle taught is false." This tour de force was followed up by the publication in 1543 of Aristotelicae Animadversiones and Dialecticae Partitiones, the former a criticism on the old logic and the latter a new textbook of the science.

	Petrus Ramus (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
		To gain a true picture of Petrus Ramus and his work, it is necessary to strike a balance between, on the one hand, the enthusiasm of his admirers and hagiographical biographers and, on the other, the historians who, from a positivistic or a scholastic perspective, have criticized his lack of originality and consistency.
		For Ramus, the main reason for reforming the curriculum was related to the usefulness of education and not to the question of Aristotle's role in it.
		Ramus laid the blame for all of this on the shoulders of the ancient and medieval commentators who he thought had for centuries misinterpreted the Greek philosopher owing to the poor condition of the Aristotelian corpus.

		Pierre de La Ramée (1515–1572), better known by the Latin form of his name, Petrus Ramus, was a French Platonist and mathematician who put forth a logical method that he hoped would replace Aristotle’s as the basis for pedagogy at both the school and university level.
		Ramus became a Calvinist Protestant, despite his friendliness with Catholic cardinals who had protected him from the wrath of the Aristotelian university professors.
		Ramus did not replace Aristotle as the supreme logician, and Ramism as a doctrine as opposed to a method had been beaten back in the universities by the beginning of the seventeenth century.

		Ramus' importance, to those who practice the latter method, is that he represents well the Renaissance period, in which the way people talk about things in current times was first established.
		Contemporary interest in Ramus is especially concerned with how Ramus separated dialectic from rhetoric (Ong discusses this more fully in "Hobbes and Talon's Ramist Rhetoric in England" and "Peter Ramus and the Naming of Methodism"), a process that entailed a shift from a primarily audile (sound based) world to a visile (sight based) world.
		Furthermore, Ramus' attack on Aristotle's logic was not an attack on deduction but on a method or organizing the scholastic curriculum, and his attack on this curriculum resulted in the use of one method of logic, taught by the teacher to the students.
