Language is art, not in so far as it is apophantic, but in so far as it is, generically, semantic.— Aesthetic as Science of Expression and General Linguistic
Aristotle, in his time, distinguished between semantic and apophantic propositions, and noted, that if all propositions be _semantic_, not all are _apophantic_.— Aesthetic as Science of Expression and General Linguistic
Aristotle, when he wished to give an example of those propositions which were not _apophantic_, but generically _semantic_ (we should say, not logical, but purely Aesthetic), and did not predicate the logically true and false, but nevertheless said something, gave as example invocation or prayer, _hae enchae_.— Aesthetic as Science of Expression and General Linguistic
Aristotle, then, is still discussing the said rhetorical and poetical propositions, semantic and not apophantic, and he remarks that in them there rules no distinction between true and false: _to alaetheueion hae pseudeothai ouk hyparchei_.— Aesthetic as Science of Expression and General Linguistic
