Resumo Inglês:

Analogies, paradigms and exemplars share a common and complex history. Aristotle actually used the term “paradigm” to describe what philosophy later came to call “analogy”. All three of these argumentative tools are located in between theory and practice. The article argues that the debate about whether they are more theoretical or more practical – reminiscent of the question discussed in the context of legal realism whether law consists of (practical) experience or (theoretic) rules – is not helpful as one cannot properly locate the origin of paradigmaticity.
