Little is known about the life of Lambert of Auxerre except that he was a Dominican in the Dominican house at Auxerre around the middle of the thirteenth century, and that he wrote a logic text known as Summa Lamberti or just Logica. He is usually grouped with the other, mostly older, terminist logicians of this period (Peter of Spain, William of Sherwood, Roger Bacon). His logic text was most likely written between 1253-57 at Troyes (or possibly Pamplona), and published in Paris probably around 1260 (de Rijk 1978, 39).
