Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Christian Remembrancer, Vol. 16: A Quarterly Review; July December That ´the Organon (l) of Bacon (2) was not designed (3) to supersede (4) the Organon (5) of Aristotle´ (6), is a well-known axiom, ´opinor omnibus et lippis notum et tonsoribus esse,´ thanks to the logic, the confessedly ´popular´ logic, of Doctor Whately. It is a pleasing paradox, in these self-opinionated, would-be-enlightened days, to find the literary world composedly acquiescing in the dictum of a superior ecclesiastic, especially one so Proteus-like and variable as he who now presides over the sister metropolis. We might argue well, a fortiori, for the judgment of a Butler or a Berkeley upon a like subject. Unfortunately, however, the meaning of the above dictum is by no means as clear as it appears; our arch-logician maintains it may ´be regarded as at least six different propositions: If the word numbered (1) were in italics, it would leave us at liberty to suppose that Bacon might have designed to supersede by "some" work of his the Organon of Aristotle, but not by his own Organon; if number (2) were in italics, we should under stand the author to be contending that, whether or no any "other" author had composed an Organon with such a design, Bacon, at least, did ¬ if number (3), then we should under stand him to maintain that, whether Bacon´s Organon does or does not supersede Aristotle´s, no such "design," at least, was entertained; and so with the rest.´ Truly, this is to surpass the inspired Pythian herself!
