al-Ṣughrā al-Sayyid al-Sharīf al-Jurjānī
The shorter of al-Jurjānī's two Persian primers, and the first logic book of the Dars-i Niẓāmī. In three short parts it gives the whole map of logic: what knowledge is and how it is acquired, how a thing is defined, and how a claim is proved. Each part ends with questions to answer.
