The classic contemporary work on fallacies, which includes a discussion of fallacies in the Indian tradition, is Charles Leonard Hamblin's Fallacies, Methuen, 1970. A work exclusively on fallacies (hetvaabhaasa) in India is Raghavendra Pandeya's Major Hetvaabhaasas, a formal analysis, Eastern Book Linkers.

Hello, 

Does anyone have a list of Sanskrit terms for logical fallacies and their equivalent in English and/or Latin? 

Something like this, for example: 

vyakti prati yukti argumentum ad hominem

 

thank you. 

All the best,
