1827. Novr. Nomography.

3

Generalia
Ends of Nomography
13

1.

Nomography - it's
object, notoriety.

2.

Technical language
what.

3.

It's mischievousness.


---page break---

1.

Transparence is natural
aptitude for receiving
notoriety.

2.

Subservient to transparence
is simplicity.

3.

Subservient to simplicity
is univocality.

4.

Employment of collective
denominations
instead of details.

1.

Logic - one main end
of it avoidance of
uncertainty.

2.

This the subject
in relation to which
the importance of
the attainments of
this end is at it's
maximum.

3.

Of uncertainty in the
expression given to
rulers will consequent
evil to subjects,
is uncertainty.

4.

Of Jurisprudenial
law, the highest degree
of that uncertainty
is a necessary
consequence.

5.

Next to this comes
that of inaptitude in
the repression or method
of the written law.

6.

If as to form, the
rule of action were
in all political states
at the highest point
of aptitude, and so destined
to continue,
needless would be the
endeavour to show by
what means the nearest
approach to it
might be made.
But the fact is the
reverse.

7.

So if a set of rules, showing
that such approach
might be made, were
in existence. But here
too the fact is the reverse.

8.

Hence, an indispensable
accompaniment to a Code
is a treatise on the form
most appropriate to a Code of Law.
