"Not" transforms a definite predicate into an indefinite. Cf. >Thought/Frege. Opposite/definite/undefinite/Millikan: Thesis: the ontological phenomenon of the opposite is fundamental to the linguistic! Not the other way around! Property/relation/Millikan: the identity of a property or relation is tied to the identity of its opposite, and that is a truth of ontology, not of logic. Logical subject: has no opposite. I 229 Therefore, it is not affected by the negation.}, note = { Millikan I R. G.
