Abstract
In his Questions on Porphyry’s Isagoge, Scotus asks about the place of inherence of the universal: ¿is it in the things or in the intellect? Being established as logical universal and intentional accident of the essence (insofar as it is the modus by which the intellect apprehends the essence), in Scotus’s answer the ontological and the semantical dimensions of the universal are articulated: with the intellect which causes it and with the things it designates. We will analyze these relations and their implications in the order of predication, taking into account Scotus’s example: «man is universal».
