Tropes, particularity, and space-time
Journal for General Philosophy of Science 38 (2):357 - 368 (2007)
| Abstract | Several difficulties, concerning the individuation and the variation of tropes, beset the initial classic version of trope theory. K. Campbell (Abstract particulars, Oxford, Basil Blackwell, 1990) presented a modified version that aims to avoid those difficulties. Unfortunately, the revised theory cannot make the case that one of the fundamental tropes, space-time, is a genuine particular. | |||||||||
