I can safely say, opposition is putting two words in contrast or disagreement with each other, while apposition is putting two nouns in succession to refer to the same thing. For example, Adam Lee, court jester is in apposition because 'court jester' refers back to Adam Lee and tells us more about Adam Lee. A sort of qualifier.
