= Sophistical Refutations
{wiki=Sophistical_Refutations}
"Sophistical Refutations" is a work by the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle, primarily dealing with the topics of logic and rhetoric. In this text, Aristotle analyzes various types of fallacies—arguments that appear to be valid but are actually misleading or incorrect. He categorizes these fallacies and provides a systematic account of how they can be identified and refuted. The work is particularly important for its exploration of how language and reasoning can be manipulated to create seemingly persuasive arguments that are not sound.
