    Maieutic method → Elenchus

    Meaning of the relation type
    Die Verbindung überschreitet einen fachlichen Kontinent. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    The elenchus tests an answer by examining whether its premises and consequences are consistent. The maieutic method also includes helping someone formulate an answer of their own. In Plato’s Theaetetus, bringing forth an answer and testing it both belong to the image of midwifery.

    Maieutic method ↔ Leading question

    Meaning of the relation type
    Zwei Begriffe bilden eine redaktionell bestätigte produktive Spannung. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    A modern example devised for the Atlas. Two people are discussing an agreement. ‘How do you judge the agreement? What speaks for your view, and what counts against it?’ leaves several answers open. ‘You agree the deal was fair, don’t you?’ invites assent. The test is whether the other person can formulate and examine an answer of their own.
