The overall aim of the project is to investigate a neglected, though highly significant, topic in Leibniz’s thought: his general conception of number in light of his mereological theory.
Special attention will be given to how this mereological background affects Leibniz’s conception of the infinite, and in particular his denial of the existence of an infinite number.
