Enthymematic interaction in Baduk.

In this paper, I propose to view each move in a game of Baduk (Go, Weiqi) as presenting an enthymematic argument. It is largely inspired by Paglieri and Woods, who suggested parsimony rather than charity as the driving force of enthymematic argumentation. Since their theory is not the final word in the history of enthymeme, my interpretation of Baduk as enthymematic interaction in terms of their fine distinctions may shed light not only on strategic reasoning in Baduk but also on the study of enthymeme itself.
