Reification of Intrinsic Principles and the Unity of Material Composites}, journal = {Organon F}, volume = {15}, number = {4}, year = {2008}, pages = {423-438}, type = {State}, abstract = {In this paper I present Su{\'a}rez{\textquoteright}s conception on material substance in connection with two main aspects of his theory. The first aspect is {\textquotedblleft}reification{\textquotedblright} of the intrinsic principles of a composite, which has led some interpreters to the claim that Su{\'a}rez significantly prepared the way for the accession of Cartesian anthropological dualism. The second one is Su{\'a}rez{\textquoteright}s emphasis on the substantial unity of material composites. The analysis of the second aspect is conceived as a counterbalance to some uncharitable interpretations of Su{\'a}rez{\textquoteright}s hylemorphism. In the second part of the paper the relevance of Su{\'a}rez{\textquoteright}s arguments to contemporary debates on the ontological constitution of individuals is presented.}, url = {http://www.klemens.sav.sk/fiusav/doc/organon/2008/4/423-438.pdf}, author = {Heider, Daniel} }
