释义 | > as lemmasimmediate inference b. spec. immediate inference (Logic): an inference drawn from a single premiss and therefore arrived at without the intervention of a middle term; sometimes called ‘interpretative inference’, because it renders explicit what was implicit in the original proposition. immediate knowledge (Philosophy): knowledge of self-evident truth; intuitive knowledge, as distinguished from that arrived at by means of demonstration or proof.

Hegel Logic §24. 45 When we compare the different forms of knowledge with one another, the first of them, immediate or intuitive knowledge, may perhaps seem the finest, noblest and most appropriate. 1874 W. Wallace tr. G. W. F. Hegel Logic §64. 108 The difference between philosophy and the asseverations of immediate knowledge rather centres in the exclusive position which immediate knowledge takes up and in its opposition to philosophy. immediate inference In English, the word appears first in the general sense, not as a term of formal Logic. In Logical treatises, it is found first applied to the deductive process of the syllogism, and its conclusion ( mediate inference); its application to the inferring of a conclusion from a single proposition by conversion, opposition, permutation, or the like ( immediate inference), and its use in the logic of induction ( inductive inference) appear later, and are not accepted by all logicians. On the other hand, some restrict the term to induction, and deny that either a syllogism or an immediate inference can properly be called an inference.extracted from inferencen.< as lemmas |
