GARCIA-RAMIREZ, Eduardo. Aristotle on Perception and Universals: an Extensional Reading. Tópicos (México) [online]. 2010, n.38, pp.49-84. ISSN 0188-6649.

This paper offers an extensional account of Aristotle's theory of perceptual content. To do so I make use of an extensional account of Aristotle's notion of universals and related notions. i argue that this view avoids certain problems recently posed by Caston (ms) by showing how it can accept a distinction between intrinsic and extrinsic perception. I also show how perception of individuals is related to knowledge and universals.

Palabras llave : extension; universals; perception; individuals; definition.
