Sentences with CONTRAPOSITION (5)
Conversion by contraposition may be said to rest on the following principle-- If one class be wholly contained in another, whatever is external to the containing class is external also to the class contained.
This statement contemplates conversion by contraposition only in reference to the A proposition, to which the process has hitherto been confined.
Logicians seem to have overlooked the fact that conversion by contraposition is as applicable to the O as to the A proposition, though, when expressed in symbols, it presents a more clumsy appearance.
Contraposition may also be applied to the E proposition by the use of conversion per accidens in the place of simple conversion.
The above-mentioned form of immediate inference, however (namely, the employment of contraposition without conversion), is valid in the case of the U proposition; and so also is simple conversion.
