Abstract
Richard Routley (né Sylvan) has been one of the most prolific and neglected thinkers of the last century. In this article, I will describe some of the main results obtained by Routley in the development of a semantics for the logic of relevance, by showing how these results have led hum first to ultralogic and only afterwards to dialeteism. Secondly, I will introduce his Meinongian ontology (known as the 'noneism') and, by referring to some unpublished manuscripts kept in the University of Queensland, I will show how the limits of such a theory have pushed him towards a new ontological approach that he called 'sistologic ontology'.
