Or 27 10| that it was, has not his argument been directed against the 28 10| of the answerer? Yet his argument is supposed to be one of 29 10| else but this will didactic argument be? For it will make manifest 30 10| didactic and dialectical argument, and of the fact that while 31 11| things is a contentious argument, and any reasoning that 32 11| reasoning, is a contentious argument: for it is merely apparent 33 11| same motives: and the same argument will be sophistical and 34 11| reality. The contentious argument stands in somewhat the same 35 11| the art of geometry, the argument which is subordinate to 36 11| contentious: and the former argument cannot be adapted to any 37 11| latter can be adapted as an argument against all the number of 38 11| the circle. Or again, an argument which denied that it was 39 11| dinner, because of Zeno’s argument, would not be a proper argument 40 11| argument, would not be a proper argument for a doctor, because Zeno’ 41 11| a doctor, because Zeno’s argument is of general application. 42 11| relation of the contentious argument to the dialectical were 43 11| geometrician, a contentious argument upon the aforesaid subjects 44 11| as it is, the dialectical argument is not concerned with any 45 11| anything, nor is it even an argument such as we find in the general 46 12| fallacy, and drawing his argument into paradox-for this was 47 12| come about because of the argument: whereas this is what his 48 12| widest range of common-place argument for leading men into paradoxical 49 14| must try to construct our argument out of the aforesaid inflections.~ 50 15| whether one has more than one argument leading to the same conclusion, 51 15| against contrary lines, of argument. In general, all the methods 52 15| purposes of contentious argument: for the object of concealment 53 15| they suppose to help one’s argument, one should put the question 54 15| of the premisses of one’s argument, either a refutation or 55 15| should also break off their argument and cut down their other 56 16| not the same thing take an argument in one’s hand and then to 57 16| which the connexion of the argument depends, we still are at 58 16| are at a loss to split the argument apart.~ 59 17| he may have addressed his argument to the very same point as 60 17| going to suppose that an argument which turns upon ambiguity 61 17| himself, at any rate his argument looks as though it had been 62 17| was the point on which the argument turned, they often find 63 17| defences one must pass to the argument that the conclusion has 64 18| those who wish to solve an argument should in the first place 65 18| difference between solving an argument when being subjected to 66 19| was not the goal of the argument but only its support.

The argument is similar, also, as regards 81 25| evil". Likewise also the argument of the thief is mistaken. 82 27| say that he has brought no argument: for a refutation must be 83 28| up in the course of the argument itself. The mode in which 84 28| follow is twofold. For the argument either is that as the universal 85 28| On this latter claim the argument of Melissus also depends: 86 29| but for the sake of the argument, whereas the questioner 87 29| it for the purpose of his argument at all.~ 88 33| former. For we must call an argument the same if it depends upon 89 33| same point; but the same argument is apt to be thought by 90 33| while others solve the argument of Zeno and Parmenides by 91 33| in all cases.~An incisive argument is one which produces the 92 33| heart-searching. Now a syllogistic argument is most incisive if from 93 33| as possible. For the one argument, if the contradictory is 94 33| bound to feel perplexed. An argument, then, of this kind is the 95 33| depends.~Now sometimes an argument which has not been properly 96 33| subject and the nerve of the argument, the reasoning that has 97 33| lightly despised, but the argument is quite respectable, though 98 33| solution sometimes against the argument, at others against the questioner 99 34| that in standing up to an argument we shall defend our thesis
