The De Generibus (attributed to Gauslenus ) can be divided into three parts: the first is about the notion of whole, the second deals with contemporary theories on universals, the third contains the presentation of the collectio theory and the solution of the problem of universals. The author considers universals like ‘humanity’ as collections composed of single essences built from particular generic essences and particular differential properties (rationality, mortality, being two-footed). One can say that Gauslenus is a philosopher who does not believe in abstract and universal entities, and imagines that these entities be multiplicities of individual essences.

Abstract
The De Generibus (attributed to Gauslenus ) can be divided into three parts: the first is about the notion of whole, the second deals with contemporary theories on universals, the third contains the presentation of the collectio theory and the solution of the problem of universals. The author considers universals like ‘humanity’ as collections composed of single essences built from particular generic essences and particular differential properties (rationality, mortality, being two-footed). One can say that Gauslenus is a philosopher who does not believe in abstract and universal entities, and imagines that these entities be multiplicities of individual essences.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
