Chapter authors explore subjects such as Aristotles ontological square, logical oppositions in Avicennas hypothetical logic, and the power of the square of opposition to solve theological problems regarding predestination and theodicy. Other topics covered include:Hegels opposition to diagramsDe Morgans unpublished octagon of opposition turnstile figures of oppositioninstitutional model-theoretic treatment of oppositionsLacans four formulas of sexuationthe theory of oppositional poly-simplexesThe Exoteric Square of Opposition will appeal to pure logicians, historians of logic, semioticians, philosophers, theologians, mathematicians, and psychoanalysts.
