Reinhardt Grossmann is one of the most sophisticated, knowledgeable
and original contemporary metaphysicians. Although he was a student
of Bergmann, he influenced the development of Bergmann's
metaphysics considerably. No philosopher other than Grossmann
defends perception to that degree against the persistent skeptical
arguments. He characterizes his epistemological positions as
radical empiricism and radical realism. By realism Grossmann mainly
means the view that the material things we perceive exist. It is
thus also an ontological position and closely related to his
empiricism. Grossmann's empiricism is radical insofar as he claims
that entities of all categories are perceptible, even numbers and
universals. Grossmann's universal realism advocates a theory of
abstract categories against the current naturalism. He
distinguishes between the world and the physical universe. The
latter is the domain of science; the former is the subject of
ontology.
