Description

Explore the complex metaphysical world of William of Ockham with this philosophical introduction from Oxford University Press. As one of the most significant nominalist thinkers of the Middle Ages, Ockham's work challenges traditional views on the existence of universals and abstract objects. This text provides a deep look into how nominalism reduces these concepts to mental or linguistic items rather than external realities. Philosopher Claude Panaccio guides readers through the three core theses of Ockham's specific genre of nominalism. You will learn about the denial of universals in the external world, the rejection of relations, and the view that quantities are not distinct entities. This book serves as an essential resource for students and scholars interested in Western philosophy and medieval theology, offering a clear outline of a rich and complex intellectual tradition.
