Categorical Syllogism as a Function
In this paper, categorical propositions are interpreted as the relations between two sets, including empty sets. The moods of a categorical syllogism are interpreted as the relations among three sets. Based on these, the syllogistic function is derived, which maps the relations of the premises to the corresponding subject-predicate relation in the ...

An old- new presentation of categorical syllogisms
, 2018 One recognizes five types of pairs of categorical premises (PCPs) – only three out of the five types entail logical conclusions (LCs) and thus generate valid categorical arguments (VCAs), some of which are the usual valid syllogisms (VSs). (George Boole and Lewis Carroll obtained these results.) One argues, (using set relabelings), that all VCAs of the

An intuitive, visual presentation of categorical syllogisms
, 2018 One proposes a very simple scheme for finding logical conclusions (LCs) from any pairof categorical premises (PCP), by using the fact that any universal, (resp. particular),premise empties, (resp. lays set elements into), two subsets out of the eight subsetpartition of the universal set U which models the categorical statements.

Critical Foundations of the Contextual Theory of Mind [PDF]
, 2011 The contextual mind is found attested in various usages of the term complement, in the background of Kant. The difficulties of Kant's intuitionism are taken up through Quine, but referential opacity is resolved as semantic presence in lived context.
