      This paper is contributing to logical geometry in the vein of Demey and Smessaert, two influential writers in the contemporary literature on Aristotelian diagrams. These diagrams analyse relations between contrarity, subcontrarity, contradiction,subalternation between objects, visual representations, classes, sets, propositions, inferences and many more. The paper presents a category theory-based method for connecting and merging Aristotelian diagrams. The paper reviews the fundamental notions in Section 2 and discusses the characteristics of structure-preserving maps between diagrams. The study uses a morphism, called infomorphism, in Section 3 to determine what the correct concepts or well-behaved category of coproduct and product of two diagrams entail. It covers a few exemplary cases in Section 4. In Section 5, the study concludes by suggesting some potential future research areas. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1487.68008].
