Supposition

In the logic of scholasticism, supposition is called various types, in which a term may stand for something or may signify something. A description of these different species is also referred to as supposition theory. A supposition theory is found in many tracts of medieval logic and in most of the logic sums, such as those of Wilhelm von Ockham, Wilhelm von Sherwood, and Walter Burleigh. In the following, the core of these theories will be presented, which most medieval writers agree with. The supposition relates to terms, that is to say general concepts, such as occur, for example, in syllogism. For example, in the sentence "homo est animal", "man is a sensory being", both "homo" and "animal" are a term. The following types of supposition are then distinguished: ▪ suppositio materialis - materiale Supposition: A term stands for this or for the word that forms the term. Example "homo est nomen" - "human being" is a noun ". Here is the term "homo" for the word "homo" itself. Als Supposition bezeichnet man in der Logik der Scholastik verschiedene Arten, in denen ein Terminus für etwas stehen bzw. etwas bezeichnen kann. Eine Darlegung dieser verschiedenen Arten bezeichnet man auch als Suppositionstheorie. Eine Suppositionstheorie findet sich in vielen Traktaten mittelalterlicher Logik und in den meisten Logik-Summen, so beispielsweise in denen von Wilhelm von Ockham, Wilhelm von Sherwood und Walter Burleigh. Im Folgenden soll der Kern dieser Theorien, dasjenige, worüber sich die meisten mittelalterlichen Autoren einig sind, vorgestellt werden. Die Supposition betrifft Termini, also Allgemeinbegriffe, wie sie beispielsweise im Syllogismus vorkommen. Zum Beispiel ist in dem Satz „homo est animal“, „der Mensch ist ein Sinnenwesen“, sowohl „homo“ als auch „animal“ ein Terminus. Es werden nun die folgenden Arten von Supposition unterschieden: ▪ suppositio materialis – materiale Supposition: Ein Terminus steht für diesen selbst bzw. für das Wort, das den Terminus bildet. Beispiel „homo est nomen“ – „‚Mensch‘ ist ein Nomen“. Hier steht der Terminus „homo“ für das Wort „homo“ selbst.
