Why Leibniz thinks Descartes was wrong and the Scholastics were right
Philosophical Studies 149 (1):1-18 (2010)
Abstract
Leibniz believes that if there are corporeal substances, they have substantial forms, believes there are substantial forms, and believes there is a close connection between the first two claims. Why does he believe there is this close connection? This paper answers that question and draws out its bearing on the realism/idealism debate.Author's Profile
