1 I, 1 | This is either universal or particular or indefinite. By universal 2 I, 1 | none of something else; by particular that it belongs to some 3 I, 1 | whether it is universal or particular, e.g. "contraries are subjects 4 I, 2 | premisses are universal, others particular, others indefinite. It is 5 I, 2 | good must be pleasure; the particular affirmative must convert 6 I, 2 | will be pleasure); but the particular negative need not convert, 7 I, 2 | Similarly too, if the premiss is particular. For if some B is A, then 8 I, 3 | affirmatives converts into a particular. If it is necessary that 9 I, 3 | be A necessarily. But the particular negative does not convert, 10 I, 3 | been already proved. The particular negative also must be treated 11 I, 3 | does not convert, and the particular does. This will be plain 12 I, 4 | last, so that neither a particular nor a universal conclusion 13 I, 4 | premiss is indefinite or particular.~But if the universality 14 I, 4 | negative, indefinite or particular: e.g. if some B is or is 15 I, 4 | premiss is negative and particular, can there be a syllogism, 16 I, 4 | premiss be indefinite or particular: e.g. if all B is A and 17 I, 4 | subject and predicate are particular, either positively or negatively, 18 I, 4 | syllogism in this figure with a particular conclusion, the terms must 19 I, 4 | figure, viz. universal and particular, affirmative and negative. 20 I, 5 | to one of the extremes, a particular negative syllogism must 21 I, 5 | statement is negative, the particular is affirmative: if the universal 22 I, 5 | universal is affirmative, the particular is negative. For if M belongs 23 I, 5 | statement is opposed to the particular, we have stated when a syllogism 24 I, 5 | indefinite nature of the particular statement. For since it 25 I, 5 | indefinite nature of the particular statement. But if the minor 26 I, 5 | is universal, the other particular, a syllogism can, not be 27 I, 5 | negative, whether universal or particular.~ 28 I, 6 | is universal, the other particular. When the minor is related 29 I, 6 | indefinite nature of the particular statement.~Nor is a syllogism 30 I, 7 | substitution of an indefinite for a particular affirmative will effect 31 I, 7 | negative premiss, each of the particular syllogisms by reductio ad 32 I, 7 | impossibile. In the first figure particular syllogisms are indeed made 33 I, 7 | first figure, and since particular syllogisms in the first 34 I, 7 | figure, it is clear that particular syllogisms can be reduced 35 I, 7 | one of the premisses is particular, by means of the particular 36 I, 7 | particular, by means of the particular syllogisms in the first 37 I, 7 | figure: consequently also the particular syllogisms in the third 38 I, 8 | is affirmative, and the particular negative, and again in the 39 I, 8 | universal is affirmative and the particular negative, the demonstration 40 I, 8 | part of the subject of the particular negative proposition, to 41 I, 9 | the proof is the same.~In particular syllogisms, if the universal 42 I, 9 | be necessary; but if the particular, the conclusion will not 43 I, 9 | be the same. But if the particular premiss is necessary, the 44 I, 10| results will obtain also in particular syllogisms. For whenever 45 I, 10| universal, the negative particular, the conclusion will not 46 I, 10| statement is necessary but particular, will the conclusion be 47 I, 11| is convertible into the particular: consequently if A belongs 48 I, 11| is universal, the other particular, and if both are affirmative, 49 I, 11| same as before; for the particular affirmative also is convertible. 50 I, 11| falls under C. But if the particular premiss is necessary, the 51 I, 11| Let the premiss BC be both particular and necessary, and let A 52 I, 11| is not necessary, but the particular is necessary. But when the 53 I, 11| the proposition AC be both particular and necessary.~But if one 54 I, 11| necessary, whether universal or particular, or the negative is particular, 55 I, 11| particular, or the negative is particular, the conclusion will not 56 I, 11| when the affirmative is particular and necessary, take the 57 I, 11| negative proposition being particular is necessary, take the terms " 58 I, 13| holds good in the case of particular affirmations: for the proof 59 I, 14| is universal, the other particular, when the major premiss 60 I, 14| same as above. But if the particular premiss is negative, and 61 I, 14| universal and the minor particular, e.g. A is possible for 62 I, 14| assumed premisses, but if the particular premiss is converted and 63 I, 14| if both are indefinite or particular, in no way will a syllogism 64 I, 15| e.g. to the present or to a particular period, but simply without 65 I, 15| prevents "man" belonging at a particular time to everything that 66 I, 15| is universal, the other particular, then whenever the major 67 I, 15| affirmative or negative, and the particular is affirmative and assertoric, 68 I, 15| problematic, and the minor is particular and problematic, whether 69 I, 15| negative, and the minor particular, negative, and problematic, 70 I, 15| results. But whenever the particular premiss is assertoric and 71 I, 15| indefinite nature of the particular premiss. But if the minor 72 I, 15| universal, and the major particular, whether either premiss 73 I, 15| possible when the premisses are particular or indefinite, whether problematic 74 I, 16| relation will obtain in particular syllogisms. Whenever the 75 I, 16| to some C. But when the particular affirmative in the negative 76 I, 16| and the major premiss is particular and necessary, there cannot 77 I, 16| universal is necessary, the particular problematic, if the universal 78 I, 16| are indefinite, or both particular. Terms applicable in either 79 I, 17| or negative, universal or particular. But when one premiss is 80 I, 17| is universal, the other particular, or both are particular 81 I, 17| particular, or both are particular or indefinite, or in whatever 82 I, 18| premisses are universal or particular. The proof is the same as 83 I, 18| good if the syllogisms are particular. Whenever the affirmative 84 I, 18| assertoric, whether universal or particular, no syllogism is possible ( 85 I, 18| proposition is assertoric, but particular, no syllogism is possible, 86 I, 18| affirmative or negative, or particular. The proof is the same and 87 I, 19| relations will obtain in particular syllogisms. For whenever 88 I, 19| if both are indefinite or particular, no syllogism can be formed. 89 I, 20| proposition is convertible into a particular, and B may possibly belong 90 I, 20| is universal, the other particular, a syllogism will be possible, 91 I, 20| first figure again if the particular premiss is converted. For 92 I, 20| premisses are indefinite or particular, no syllogism can be formed: 93 I, 21| is universal, the other particular, then when both are affirmative, 94 I, 21| universal is negative, the particular affirmative, we shall have 95 I, 21| universal, the negative particular, the proof will proceed 96 I, 21| premisses are indefinite or particular, no syllogism will be possible. 97 I, 24| premisses are universal, while a particular statement is proved both 98 I, 26| through the second in two. The particular affirmative is proved through 99 I, 26| moods through the last. The particular negative is proved in all 100 I, 26| they are destroyed: and the particular negative is proved in all 101 I, 26| possible in two figures. But particular statements can be refuted 102 I, 26| either to all or to none. But particular statements are easier to 103 I, 26| universal statements by means of particular, and particular statements 104 I, 26| means of particular, and particular statements by means of universal: 105 I, 26| universal statements by means of particular, though it is possible to 106 I, 26| is possible to establish particular statements by means of universal. 107 I, 27| those which follow some particular but those which follow the 108 I, 27| e.g. not what follows a particular man but what follows every 109 I, 28| establish not a universal but a particular proposition, they must look 110 I, 28| object is to establish a particular negative proposition, we 111 I, 28| universal statement into a particular.~It is clear then that in 112 I, 29| inquiry which leads up to a particular conclusion, with the addition 113 I, 32| are universal and which particular, and if both premisses have 114 I, 32| universal, in what sort the particular is described, clearly we 115 I, 36| the genus is asserted in a particular way, in relation to the 116 I, 39| is not identical with a particular kind of supposable (for 117 I, 41| use the existence of this particular thing, but imitate the geometrician 118 I, 45| syllogism is not universal but particular, e.g. if A belongs to no 119 I, 45| but only one of the two particular syllogisms. Let A belong 120 I, 45| But if the syllogism is particular, whenever the negative statement 121 I, 45| and B to some C. Since the particular affirmative is convertible, 122 I, 45| syllogism is negative: for the particular affirmative is convertible: 123 I, 45| to some A. But since the particular statement is convertible, 124 I, 45| universal, the affirmative particular: for A will belong to no 125 I, 45| the negative statement is particular, no resolution will be possible, 126 I, 45| and both premisses will be particular.~It is clear that in order 127 I, 45| the negative statement is particular, no resolution will be possible: 128 I, 45| will be possible: for the particular negative does not admit 129 II, 1 | syllogisms are universal, others particular, all the universal syllogisms 130 II, 1 | than one result, and of particular syllogisms the affirmative 131 II, 1 | convertible save only the particular negative: and the conclusion 132 II, 1 | all syllogisms save the particular negative yield more than 133 II, 1 | syllogisms whether universal or particular. But it is possible to give 134 II, 1 | not belong to E.~But in particular syllogisms there will be 135 II, 1 | result when this premiss is particular), but whatever is subordinate 136 II, 1 | possible also in the case of particular syllogisms.~ 137 II, 2 | ex hypothesi is true.~In particular syllogisms it is possible 138 II, 2 | the first is true, and the particular is false; and when both 139 II, 3 | syllogisms are universal or particular, viz. when both premisses 140 II, 3 | that our thesis holds in particular syllogisms. For (5) nothing 141 II, 3 | premiss is wholly false, the particular premiss is true, and the 142 II, 3 | premiss is true, and the particular is false. For nothing prevents 143 II, 3 | universal premiss true, but the particular false. Similarly if the 144 II, 3 | universal premiss is true, the particular false, and the conclusion 145 II, 3 | premiss is affirmative and the particular negative. For it is possible 146 II, 4 | clear also in the case of particular syllogisms that a true conclusion 147 II, 5 | the remaining premiss.~In particular syllogisms it is not possible 148 II, 5 | other propositions, but the particular premiss can be demonstrated. 149 II, 5 | that both premisses are particular. But the particular premiss 150 II, 5 | are particular. But the particular premiss may be proved. Suppose 151 II, 5 | is possible to prove the particular premiss, if the proposition 152 II, 5 | syllogism results because the particular premiss is negative.~ 153 II, 6 | as we gave above, but the particular premiss can be proved whenever 154 II, 7 | in this figure is always particular, so that it is clear that 155 II, 7 | is universal, the other particular, proof of the latter will 156 II, 7 | through the first, but when particular through the second and the 157 II, 8 | universal. For one premiss is particular, so that the conclusion 158 II, 8 | conclusion also will be particular. Let the syllogism be affirmative, 159 II, 8 | will belong to some B.~In particular syllogisms when the conclusion 160 II, 9 | quality.~If the syllogism is particular, when the conclusion is 161 II, 10| by the conversion must be particular, or the universal premiss 162 II, 10| negative, the other premiss particular and affirmative. If then 163 II, 11| per impossibile.~But the particular affirmative and the universal 164 II, 11| affirmative and the universal and particular negatives can all be proved. 165 II, 14| demonstration establishes a particular proposition: the hypothesis 166 II, 15| universal affirmative to particular negative, particular affirmative 167 II, 15| to particular negative, particular affirmative to universal 168 II, 15| universal negative, and particular affirmative to particular 169 II, 15| particular affirmative to particular negative: but really there 170 II, 15| are only three: for the particular affirmative is only verbally 171 II, 15| verbally opposed to the particular negative. Of the genuine 172 II, 15| B but to no C, so that a particular science will not be a science. 173 II, 15| not be a science. Again, a particular science will not be a science 174 II, 15| one has assumed that a particular science is supposition. 175 II, 15| and C to no A, so that a particular science will not be a science. 176 II, 15| taken universally; if one is particular, they are contradictory.~ 177 II, 15| universal affirmative and particular negative, or particular 178 II, 15| particular negative, or particular affirmative and universal 179 II, 16| reason thus merely say a particular thing is, if it is: in this 180 II, 21| B for triangle, C for a particular diagram of a triangle. A 181 II, 21| with a foreknowledge of the particular, but along with the process 182 II, 21| mistake in apprehending the particular. Similarly in the cases 183 II, 21| universal to knowledge of the particular. For we know no sensible 184 II, 21| knowledge which is proper to the particular, but without the actual 185 II, 21| previously considered the particular question. For when he thinks 186 II, 23| bileless, and C for the particular long-lived animals, e.g. 187 II, 24| induction starting from all the particular cases proves (as we saw) 188 II, 24| draw its proof from all the particular cases.~ 189 II, 26| premiss, because it may be particular, but a premiss either cannot 190 II, 26| premiss either cannot be particular at all or not in universal 191 II, 26| objection is either universal or particular, by two figures because 192 II, 26| reply with a universal or a particular negative; the former is 193 II, 26| term.~If the objection is particular, the objector must frame 194 II, 26| the third figure: for the particular term assumed is middle, 195 II, 26| opinion, and inquire whether a particular objection cannot be elicited 196 II, 27| concomitants is the sign of a particular affection? Perhaps if both
