Abstract and Concrete Individuals and Projection
Organon F: Medzinárodný Časopis Pre Analytickú Filozofiu 24 (supplementary):74-88 (2017)
Abstract
Two kinds of individuals are distinguished: abstract and concrete. Whereas abstract individuals belong to our conceptual sphere, concrete individuals (i.e. particulars) individuate the world of matter. A subject investigating the external world projects abstract individuals onto concrete ones. The proposal offers a solution to various metaphysical and epistemological puzzles concerned with individuals, e.g., the Ship of Theseus, the Polish Logician, problems with reidentification, or proper names.Author's Profile
