definition: Enthymeme


The book mentions Enthymemes, but I had to go to Wikipedia for a good description. It’s a kind of logical syllogism used in rhetoric where you leave out a piece. Wikipedia uses the following example:


  The complete formal syllogism would be the classic:

      All humans are mortal. (major premise – unstated)

      Socrates is human. (minor premise – stated)

      Therefore, Socrates is mortal. (conclusion – stated)


_Thank you for Arguing_
