A note on Kant's formal logic

The paper presents a problem arising from Kant's theory of analytic judgments in conjunction with his official allegiance to the syllogistic. It is then argued that this problem can only be solved by the acknowledgement that the logic with which Kant operated was consistent neither the syllogistic nor with classical logic, consisting, in effect, in a species of inclusive logic.
