Thomas Hobbes on Accidents - Dictionary of Arguments
Adorno XIII 245 Accidents/accidental property/Hobbes/Adorno: The accidental is not real in Hobbes, but it is the way in which the bodies are perceived by us. Through this moment, the materialism of Hobbes, like most modern materialist philosophies, plays into positivism or empiricism. >Positivism, >Empiricism, >Materialism. This concept of accidents is already very similar to a concept which Locke, the immediate successor and radical critic of Hobbes, has characterized: the concept of secondary qualities. >Secondary qualities, >Qualities. N.B.: the relation of essence and appearance is reversed in opposition to the Platonic tradition: what is appearance there, becomes essence, namely, the body-world. On the other hand, this becomes the appearance, which is essence there, namely, the way of mental conception, or even mental activity._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
