(1996) The school of Franz Brentano, Dordrecht, Nijhoff.
The term "reism' was introduced by Tadeusz Kotarbiński to denote the philosophical view that the category of things is the sole ontological category.1 Shortly after Elementy went in print, Kazimierz Twardowski pointed out in a letter to Kotarbiński, that a similar ontological theory has been elaborated by Franz Brentano in the last period of his life. In 1930, Kotarbiński delivered a lecture at 7th International Philosophical Congress in Oxford. After the congress, he received a letter from Georg Katkov with further information on Brentano's reism.2
