1 I, 8 | the particular negative proposition, to which the predicate 2 I, 11| however necessarily. If the proposition BC is converted the first 3 I, 11| can be made, should the proposition AC be both particular and 4 I, 11| whenever the affirmative proposition is necessary, whether universal 5 I, 11| animal. But when the negative proposition being particular is necessary, 6 I, 15| one premiss is a simple proposition, the other a problematic, 7 I, 15| necessarily follows: but if the proposition BC is converted and it is 8 I, 16| to the necessary negative proposition: for "not necessarily to 9 I, 16| Since then the negative proposition is convertible, B is not 10 I, 16| syllogisms. Whenever the negative proposition is necessary, the conclusion 11 I, 16| premiss, or the universal proposition in the affirmative syllogism, 12 I, 17| the negative problematic proposition is not convertible, e.g. 13 I, 17| consequently the negative proposition is not convertible. Further, 14 I, 17| some B" are opposed to the proposition "A belongs to all B". Similarly 15 I, 17| they are opposed to the proposition "A may belong to no B". 16 I, 17| been said that the negative proposition is not convertible.~This 17 I, 18| to all C. If the negative proposition is converted, B will belong 18 I, 18| Whenever the affirmative proposition is assertoric, whether universal 19 I, 18| but when the negative proposition is assertoric, a conclusion 20 I, 18| negative, and the assertoric proposition is universal, although no 21 I, 18| before. But if the negative proposition is assertoric, but particular, 22 I, 19| Again let the affirmative proposition be necessary, and the other 23 I, 19| or a negative necessary proposition because no negative premiss 24 I, 19| be a problematic negative proposition. For if the terms are so 25 I, 19| For whenever the negative proposition is universal and necessary, 26 I, 19| and a negative assertoric proposition (the proof proceeds by conversion); 27 I, 19| but when the affirmative proposition is universal and necessary, 28 I, 19| also a negative assertoric proposition; but if the affirmative 29 I, 20| in a negative assertoric proposition, as above. In these also 30 I, 20| Since then the affirmative proposition is convertible into a particular, 31 I, 20| the Bs. Similarly if the proposition BC is universal. Likewise 32 I, 20| universal. Likewise also if the proposition AC is negative, and the 33 I, 20| AC is negative, and the proposition BC affirmative: for we shall 34 I, 21| belong to all C. If the proposition BC is converted, we shall 35 I, 21| problematic. Similarly if the proposition BC is pure, AC problematic; 36 I, 22| always be drawn; when one proposition is affirmative, the other 37 I, 22| inferred; but if the negative proposition is necessary both a problematic 38 I, 22| proof may be given if the proposition BC is necessary, and AC 39 I, 22| problematic. Again suppose one proposition is affirmative, the other 40 I, 22| all C. If the affirmative proposition BC is converted, we shall 41 I, 22| will be a pure negative proposition; for the same kind of proof 42 I, 23| should be asserted of B, the proposition originally in question will 43 I, 23| syllogism leads up to the proposition that is substituted for 44 I, 25| and B. Suppose that the proposition E is inferred from the premisses 45 I, 25| does not prove the original proposition.~So it is clear that every 46 I, 25| continuous middle terms, e.g. the proposition AB by means of the middle 47 I, 27| indeed we state it in a proposition: for the other statement 48 I, 28| universal but a particular proposition, they must look for the 49 I, 28| establish a particular negative proposition, we must find antecedents 50 I, 28| for since the negative proposition is convertible, and F is 51 I, 28| clear then that in every proposition which requires proof we 52 I, 28| possible at all to establish a proposition from consequents, and it 53 I, 29| whether a possible or a pure proposition is proved. We must find 54 I, 35| be no middle term for the proposition AB, although it is demonstrable. 55 II, 5 | one another. Suppose the proposition AC has been demonstrated 56 II, 5 | middle term, and again the proposition AB through the conclusion 57 II, 5 | converted, and similarly the proposition BC through the conclusion 58 II, 5 | that B belongs to C, the proposition AB must no longer be converted 59 II, 5 | particular premiss, if the proposition AB is converted as in the 60 II, 6 | to prove an affirmative proposition in this way, but a negative 61 II, 6 | this way, but a negative proposition may be proved. An affirmative 62 II, 6 | be proved. An affirmative proposition is not proved because both 63 II, 6 | negative) but an affirmative proposition is (as we saw) proved from 64 II, 7 | be possible to prove the proposition AC, when it is assumed that 65 II, 9 | belongs to all C, and the proposition AB stands, A will belong 66 II, 9 | universal. Consequently the proposition AB is not refuted. But if 67 II, 11| proceed in the same way if the proposition CA has been taken as negative. 68 II, 11| results if the original proposition CA was negative: for thus 69 II, 11| syllogism. But if the negative proposition concerns B, nothing is proved. 70 II, 14| establishes a particular proposition: the hypothesis then must 71 II, 17| impossibile, to rebut the proposition which was being proved by 72 II, 17| man has contradicted this proposition he will not say, "False 73 II, 20| affirmative propositions or one proposition is affirmative, the other 74 II, 27| is a generally approved proposition: what men know to happen 75 II, 27| sign means a demonstrative proposition necessary or generally approved: 76 II, 27| for woman. Now if the one proposition is stated, we have only
