| Title | Unpublished paper, 'On the algebraical analogues of logical relations' by Alexander J [John] Ellis |
| Date | 1873 |
| Description | The object of this paper is to examine the mathematical theory of logic laid down by George Boole in his ‘Laws of Thought'. For this purpose, first the laws of such an algebra have been investigated independently of logic; and secondly the laws of primary and secondary logical propositions as laid down by Boole have been developed in an algebraical form, and compared with the former.
