V 107
Form/similarity/Quine: E.g. ovate: is something that is more similar in shape to each of two eggs than these are to one another. It is always between two things. (s) Idealization: applies to two arbitrarily chosen things. It cannot differ independently in one direction from both eggs - pomegranate-colored: in the middle between two concrete colors.
V 165
Form/analytic geometry/Quine: are class of classes of pairs of real numbers. ((s) Two-dimensional).
V 184
Form: a variety can only be recognized as a square if it is marked - against this: Colour: Scarlet red, for example, does not need to be marked.
Form/Colour/Quine: Difference: the union of squares is usually not a square, while the union of several scarlet areas is scarlet red.
Form/Colour/Ontology/Quine: classic solution: comes down to a double ontology: matter and space.
Spatial diversity: is an aggregate of points, physical objects, particles. Certain particular at a time.
Squares: are spatial manifolds.
For example, a certain cross-section of a physical object will occupy almost exactly a certain square, and it will occupy an infinite number of squares that almost coincide with it almost exactly.
Spatiotemporal Identity/Quine: is then no longer a problem. A square, a certain aggregate of points retains its identity for all times.
V 186
Manifold/Quine: these were merely individual squares, circles, etc. These were not abstract objects like squares.
Forms: would be classes of such, i.e. objects of higher abstraction - Forms/(s) i.e. are classes of classes of points. Letter forms: are classes of inscriptions.
