G.W. Leibniz on Completeness - Dictionary of Arguments
Holz I 73 Complete concept/Leibniz: contains all possible conditions and determinations for the existence of a particular being, is thus identical with the concept of the world as a whole. Only perceptible to an infinite mind. Cf. >Concept/Hegel. Overarching general: for the infinite mind, the distinction between truths of reason and truths of facts is again invalid: for him, everything is a truth of reason, or just as well one can say, everything is for him a factual truth! For the finite mind, however, the truth of reason is the opposite of the truth of facts. Overarching general: the one includes its opposite. "the overarching general"._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
