This obviously needs expansion--even just to become an adequate minimal presentation of Aristotle's theory. It also seems to skew Plato's theory of universals, too -- (many scholars agree that Aristotle himself does this), and this could be corrected.

I added a see also section. Although the links are mentioned in the text, I think it is good to have the section. Uriah923 15:08, 28 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback

[edit]

Rollback to previous version. Parent article is Aristotle, who formalized Aristotle's Theory of Universals. Well-documented with hundreds of citations given. The Problem of Universals redirect is full of obfusticating jargon, whereas apples are a concrete & reproducible real world example of real objects with observable properties which anyone can verify. Aristotle making zero assumptions in his ontology serves to minimize experimental bias. Not only are there hundreds of academic citations, but his name is in the title!! It has been made abundantly clear that Aristotle's Theory of Universals originates from Aristotle. If you believe that the article is unfairly biased then go to the nearest park or grocery store, obtain any fruit and check for yourself whether ordinary objects have physical properties.
