Abstract

:: The idea of “material plenitude” has been gaining traction in recent discussions of the metaphysics of material objects. My main goal here is to show that this idea may have important dialectical implications for the metaphysics of properties – more specifically, that it provides nominalists with new resources in their attempt to reject an ontology of universals. I will recapitulate one of the main arguments against nominalism – due to David Armstrong – and show how plenitude helps the nominalist overcome the argument.

唯名论与物质丰裕
在最近关于物质对象的形而上学的讨论中,“物质丰富”的概念越来越受到关注。我在这里的主要目的是要表明,这个观点可能对属性形而上学具有重要的辩证意义——更具体地说,它为唯名论者提供了新的资源,以试图拒绝共相本体论。我将概括David Armstrong提出的反对唯名论的主要论点之一,并展示丰富性是如何帮助唯名论克服这一论点的。
