Plato, Aristotle, Aquinas, and Metaphysics

[genkaus]

I would say this is what he agrees with. He considers forms to be the same thing in both philosophers' views. A summary of Aristotle, in Feser's words:

Like Plato, Aristotle is a realist in the sense we've been discussing. But he thinks Plato needs to be brought down to earth a bit. For Aristotle, universals or forms are real, and they are not reducible to anything either material or mental. Still, he thinks it is an error to regard them as objects existing in a "third realm" of their own. Rather, considered as they are in themselves they exist only "in" the things they are forms of; and considered as abstractions from these things, they exist only in the intellect. Furthermore, even the intellect relies on the senses in coming to know them.

Thus demonstrating his poor understanding of the two metaphysical systems. The difference between Plato's universals and Aristotle's universals is so great that it cannot be described as a 'reinterpretation' as he does.
