Franz Brentano on Concepts - Dictionary of Arguments

Chisholm II 228
Concepts/Brentano: Concepts are gained from concrete view and have always concrete views as the basis in later use.
E.g. When I say "There is impossibly something non-colored red" so I have seen something red before. (Other authorsVs).
All concepts are empirical, not a priori.
Even in descriptive psychology, whereas their judgments are a priori.

>a priori
