Finitude and Hume’s Principle

Journal of Philosophical Logic, 1997
Let FA be the extension of second-order logic with the so-called Hume's principle HP, i.e. the claim that the number of a concept \(F\) is equal to the number of a concept \(G\) iff \(F\) and \(G\) are equinumerous (i.e. there is a bijection between the collection of objects falling under \(F\) and those falling under \(G\)).

Hume’s nominalism and the Copy Principle

Canadian Journal of Philosophy, 2012
I consider some ways in which the Copy Principle (CP) and Hume's nominalism impinge on one another, arguing for the following claims. First, Hume's argument against indeterminate ideas isn't cogent even if the CP is accepted. But this does not vindicate Locke: the imagistic conception of ideas, presupposed by the CP, will force Locke to accept ...
