### McCabe - *Plato's Individuals* ###
### 2. Particulars ###
Extreme contrast between two different kinds of individuals or unities: forms, "one over many" and particulars "one under many."
[Page 25](sk://mccabe94#41)
Plato's distrust of the physical world may be ontological or it may be epistemological. Thesis: the latter because the physical world is not self-explanatory.
[Page 25](sk://mccabe94#41)
Three features of particulars:
(1) natural inherence.
(2) compresence of opposites.
(3) thorough complexity.
