Epistemological coherentism is characterized by a rejection of the claim that this specific type of statement is necessarily false. Agrippa's trilemma is the claim that all proofs are fundamentally axiomatic, regressive, or this. Parts 5 and 16 of Book II of the Prior Analytics discuss this type of statement, the latter part noting that this occurs for negative syllogisms when the predicates denied for a given subject are identical. The simplest form of this error occurs when a syllogism's conclusion is derived from one, not both, of its premises. For 10 points, name this fallacy that occurs more generally when a conclusion is the same as one of the premises used to prove it.
