the only realized Ontology

May 27, 2008

However, the only realized Ontology – in other words, the univocity of being – is repetition. From Duns Scotus to Spinoza, the univocal position has always reseted on two fundamental theses. “there are indeed forms of being, but contrary to what is suggested by the categories, these forms involve no division within being or plurality of ontological senses.” “that of which being is said is repartitioned according to essentially mobile individuating difference which necessarily endow ‘each one’ with a plurality of modal signification.” (303)
