Nov 30, 2023 at 9:18 | comment | added | Jo Wehler | @MauroALLEGRANZA Concerning your comment in a nutshell: It seems like much ado about nothing: formal reality = the concept in the mind; objective reality = the referent of the concept in the external world. - Many thanks for your support with all your references - I will look them up; at least some of them :-) | |

Nov 30, 2023 at 9:00 | comment | added | Mauro ALLEGRANZA | See also Descartes: Ideas and The Formal-Objective Reality Distinction: "When speaking of ideas as representing things to the mind, Descartes will refer to an idea’s objective reality. The objective reality of a thing is the kind of reality a thing possesses in virtue of its being a representation of something." | |
Nov 30, 2023 at 8:51 | comment | added | Mauro ALLEGRANZA | "scholastic" is not an easy topic... In a nutshell, an "idea" (concept) has "formal reality" when it is considered as a product of the mind (a "mental object") and has "objective reality" when it is considered wrt the object it represents. See Formal versus Objective Reality in Descartes. | |
