16658 | The only reality in the category of Relation is things from another category [Henry of Ghent] |
Full Idea: There is beyond a doubt nothing real in the category of Relation, except what is a thing from another category. | |

A reaction: This seems to have been the fairly orthodox scholastic view of relations. |
