Esencias individuales e identidad primitiva
Abstract
O trabalho discute se é necessário postular uma identidade primitiva como constituinte de essências individuais. Em primeiro lugar, oferece-se uma formulação precisa dos conceitos de "essência individual", "isto-idade" (Thisness) e identidade primitiva. Em segundo lugar, são discutidos de maneira crua os argumentos tradicionais para rejeição do princípio da identidade dos indiscerníveis. Na terceira parte, fi nalmente, considera-se a conexão que poderia ter a questão sobre a existência de uma "isto-idade" com a necessidade de origem.
