Henry of Ghent on Real Relations and the Trinity: The Case for Numerical Sameness Without Identity

Later this year my article, 'Henry of Ghent on Real Relations and the Trinity: The Case for Numerical Sameness Without Identity', in: Recherches de Théologie et Philosophie Médiévales 79.1 (2012), will be published. Here is the abstract.
