    Logic, Ontology and the Psychology of the Universals in Duns Scotus

  • Original language description

    Scotus's position on universals raises many questions regarding his views as a realist or conceptualist: just as in the case of the notion of being, he claims universals are not real existents but they are not mental fictions either, or a mere semantic problem. This paper explores the different senses of 'unviersal' in Scotus's logic and metaphysics, what kind of reality they have (in re or negative, as natura absolute considerata or as natura communis), and in what sense can it be related to other authorities like Aristotle, Avicenna, and Aquinas. Scotus's theory of abstraction is here methdologically considered in order to bring light to his philosophy of universals.
