This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1909 edition. Excerpt: ...that one or another of the propositions is omitted. For example, "This object can be magnetized, for it is made of iron," omits the major premise, "All things made of iron can be magnetized." Again, in "Every member of the jury voted for acquittal, therefore X voted for acquittal," the minor premise, "X was a member of the jury," is omitted. In " All metals are elements; this is a metal," the conclusion is omitted. Syllogisms from which one proposition is missing are called Enthymemes. The missing premise can usually be found without difficulty. The two propositions which are given contain the three terms of the syllogism; one of these will be common to the two propositions, and the missing proposition will contain the other two terms. Thus with the proposition, " S is M; hence, S is P," the missing premise is clearly " M is P," or " P is M." With " M is P; therefore, S is P," the missing premise will contain S and M. The danger of false reasoning is greater here than in the complete, syllogism, since the proposition which is not expressed may be false or inadequate, and if the proposition is not definitely stated its inadequacy is easily overlooked. The Enthymeme is an incomplete form of syllogistic reasoning; it is less than a syllogism. There are several complex forms in which we find more than a syllogism. Prosyllogism Axd Episyllogism.--Two complete syllogisms may be united by having a proposition in common. Thus: Prosyllogism 'AH the Romance languages are derived from Latin; French is a Romance language; Therefore, French is derived from Latin... I This man speaks French; Jipisyuogism J Therefore, this man speaks a language de( rived from Latin. In...
