Mysticism and Logic and Other Essays These logical equations, then, are in truth identities of denotation; and they are fully illustrated by the relations of circles described in the previous section. Logic Deductive and Inductive Hence the doctrine that by increasing the connotation of a name we decrease its denotation: if, for example, to the definition of 'lion' we add 'inhabiting Africa,' Asiatic lions are no longer denoted by it.
