In this paper, I argue that there are universals. I begin (Sect. 1) by proposing a sufficient condition for a thing’s being a universal. I then argue (Sect. 2) that some truths exist necessarily. Finally, I argue (Sects. 3 and 4) that these truths are structured entities having constituents that meet the proposed sufficient condition for being universals. 相似文献

There are predicates and subjects. It is thus tempting to think that there are properties on the one hand, and things that
have them on the other. I have no quarrel with this thought; it is a fine place to begin a theory of properties and property-having.
But in this paper, I argue that one such theory—bare particularism—is false. I pose a dilemma. Either bare particulars instantiate
the properties of their host substances or they do not. If they do not, then bare particularism is both unmotivated and false.
If they do, then the view faces a problematic—and, I shall argue, false—crowding consequence. 相似文献

Abstract This paper contrasts the scholastic realisms of David Armstrong and Charles Peirce. It is argued that the so-called ‘problem of universals’ is not a problem in pure ontology (concerning whether universals exist) as Armstrong construes it to be. Rather, it extends to issues concerning which predicates should be applied where, issues which Armstrong sets aside under the label of ‘semantics’, and which from a Peircean perspective encompass even the fundamentals of scientific methodology. It is argued that Peirce's scholastic realism not only presents a more nuanced ontology (distinguishing the existent from the real) but also provides more of a sense of why realism should be a position worth fighting for. 相似文献
