Tropes

Properties, Objects, and Mental Causation

Beschreibung

Properties and objects are everywhere, but remain a philosophical mystery. Douglas Ehring argues that the idea of tropes¿properties and relations understood as particulars¿provides the best foundation for a metaphysical account of properties and objects. He develops and defends a new theory of trope nominalism.
