Purely Objective Reality

Description

This volume solves the problem of the subjectivity/objectivity couplet, making an indispensable contribution both to semiotics and to philosophy. Foremost American philosopher, John Deely, offers the first sustained and theoretically consistent interrogation of the means by which human understanding of 'reality' will be instrumental in the survival– or destruction – of planet Earth.

He makes some interesting points regarding being, relation, and the Trinity on pp. 17 ff. (PDF pp. 28 ff.) regarding the Holy Trinity being relations and relation being ens minimum (Super Sent. , lib. 1 d. 26 q. 2 a. 2 ad 2), yet God is clearly an ens maximum.

cf. Deely's only PhD student Brian Kemple's 15 min. talk On the Meaning of "Objective"
