Collusions: toward an agonal ontologyJean-Baptiste Joinet 02-05-2018 - 11:00 Largo San Leonardo Murialdo,1 - Pal.C - AULA 311
In Frege and Russell’s line, the main tool to propagate ontology toward higher orders is realized by quotienting sets by equivalence relations. Indeed, this leads to produce, at the next order, separated individualities (disjoint non empty subsets covering the original set) and this in such a way that this separation is conceptually generated from a relation at the initial order. This way to relate ontology and equivalence relations is deeply Parmenidian in inspiration : non only because it considers individualities independently of time (first point), but also because it propagates at the next order the idea of an autonomy of individualities, i.e. the idea that the individuality of individuals is independent of any relational commitment between them (second point). |
