The aim of this paper is to show that for Alfarabi argumentative flexibility derived from aristotelian logic, bind to stoic logical innovations, gives place to «poetical syllogism». This argumentative flexibility is obtained from the mixture of all syllogisms, namely «mixed forms of syllogism», that allow the inclusion of analogy, which is poetical syllogism way of reasoning.
