ABSTRACT
[Benthara uses the term exposition to refer to what we would call analysis. Having examined the nature of fictitious entities in the previous chapter he now goes on to develop a technique of analysing them by relating them to some real entities. Exposition, in his view, can involve a number of thinks like synonymation (tracing synonyms) etymologisation (tracing the origin of a word), phraseoplerosis and archetypation. Only the last two are essential to every mode of logical analysis, and are discussed in some detail in this chapter. It would have been noticed that for Bentham, logic—especially logical analysis —presupposes ontology.]
