I encountered following syllogism as an example of false equitation:
Man is a species
Socrates is a man
Therefore, Socrates is a species
The text ("An Introduction to Traditional Logic" by Scott M. Sullivan") also noticed that fallacy occurs due to change of supposition. Namely, "The major uses “man” with simple supposition while the minor uses the same term with personal supposition and so the inference is fallacious.". As far as I can tell, the author uses concept of "supposition" developed by medieval scholastic logicians. Supposedly this theory explains what is wrong with syllogisms like this. The text contains explanation for theory of supposition (in appendix article "In Defense of the Square of Opposition"), but I wasn't able to understand it. I would like to get alternative sources for introduction to the concept of supposition. Preferably not overly obscure or created only for professionals. Any help?
