antilogism Logic.|ænˈtɪlədʒɪz(ə)m| [f. Gr. ἀντιλογία contradiction + -ism; the existence of late Gr. ἀντιλογισµός ‘countercharge’ was unkn. to the coiner.] An inconsistent triad, or set of three propositions which cannot all be true together, obtained by taking the premisses of any valid syllogism together with the negation of the conclusion. Hence anˌtiloˈgistic a., anˌtiloˈgistically adv. The term, though implicit in earlier writers (see quot. 1962), was first used by Mrs. C. Ladd-Franklin.
1902Mrs. C. Ladd-Franklin in Baldwin's Dict. Philos. & Psychol. II. 633/1 The three propositions taken together constitute an inconsistency, or an incompatibility, or, as it may perhaps be called, to distinguish it from the syllogism, an antilogism. 1922W. E. Johnson Logic II. iv. 78 An antilogism may be defined as a formal disjunction of two, three, or more propositions, each of which is entertained hypothetically. Ibid. 80 From this single antilogistic dictum we construct the dicta for the first three figures of syllogism. 1962W. & M. Kneale Devel. of Logic iv. 278 Burleigh..goes on to remark that Aristotle's procedure of indirect reduction depends on the principle that the premisses and the negation of the conclusion of any valid syllogism form together an inconsistent triad (or antilogism as it has sometimes been called). |
