Uwe Meixner on Analogies - Dictionary of Arguments
I 25f Ontological Analogy/Meixner: the different contents that the transcendentals take in the different categories stand in a systematic context: ontological analogy. E.g. individuals are possible in a different way than facts are. Likewise, individuals are differently "actual" than facts. I.e. the different transcendentals do not have the same conceptual content in the different categories. >Transcendentals, >Categories, >Ontology, >Content, >Conceptual content, >Empirical content, >Individuals, >States of affairs._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
