Syllogism Homework
Twice, Guildenstern uses a syllogism in an attempt to understand what
is happening concerning the unlikely coin toss and the royal summons.
A syllogism is a system of argument that employs a major and a minor
premise, and a logical conclusion based on the veracity of those premises.
For example: All humans will eventually die (major premise). You are a
human (minor premise). Therefore, you will eventually die (conclusion).
Construct your own syllogism to support your beliefs about a topic rel-
evant to the themes of Rosencrantz & Guildenstern are Dead.
