Document Summary
Realism: universals have the only true reality, or possess greater reality than particulars, reality would continue as it is, even if there were no human subjects to perceive it, because it has an essence independent of human perception. Each object in the real world participates in the nature of ideal of itself; that nature may be absolute, specific, or generic. Each object or quality in the real world owes its existence to resemblance to, or participation in, ideal form of itself; forms exist beyond realm of senses (eternal and immutable) Note: third type of realism states that each object in real world is derived from a law or model that exists abstractly in natural science. Refusal to accept unverifiable statements (that is, truths that cannot be verified) All objects outside the mind exist in a concrete sense realism: it is given because it conforms to common experience.
