Logic
When does the formation of logic begin? When Greek philosophy comes to an end and becomes a matter of schools, organization, and technique. It begins when eon, the being of beings, appears as idea, and as idea becomes the "object" of episteme. Logic originated in the ambit of the administration of the Platonic-Aristotelian schools. Logic is an invention of schoolteachers, not of philosophers.

Thus logic is the laws of thought - how it works; or of words.
Quoting Xtrix
As if there is a clear demarcation. Philosophers do not teach and teachers do not philosophise.
Nonsense! When does it begin? at the beginning of the sentence. Talk nonsense - I do it quite often, and mean to communicate thereby. Analogy is nonsense because it is ana-logical.
That's one translation, the common one. There is that meaning in ancient Greece, as well. But in Homer, Heraclitus, and others, the word logos is more akin to "collect," or "gather."

What does the "thus" have to do with? This implies that this sentence follows from the first -- which it doesn't, because you haven't explained anything.
"Logic" is an abbreviation of ???????? ??????, as the "science of logos" -- logos here meaning "assertion." This sense of logos as "assertion" has an interesting story as well.

Of course they do. What's the point?
So much the better for logic, then.
Maybe.
