ON THE PORPHYRIAN TREE STRUCTURE AND AN OPERATION OF DETERMINATION

Janusz Kaczmarek · 2002

The paper formalises the structure of Porphyrian tree (PTS) and introduces operation of determination (D), which renders the Wolff’s idea of generating attributes of being by means of essentialia. The analysis of their mutual dependencies has lead to the following conclusion: operation D is generated by PTS and, conversely, some Porphyrian structure is determined by operation D. Key words: arbor porphyriana, Wolff’s ontology, essence, complete and uncomplete objects.
