Intelligibility (philosophy)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In philosophy, intelligibility is what can be comprehended by the human mind.

[edit] Usage

The objects or concepts that have intelligibility may be called intelligible.

There may be a distinction between everything that is intelligible and everything that is intelligible, called the intelligible world and the intelligible world in e.g. the analogy of the divided line.

[edit] Examples

The Absolute is generally regarded as being only partially intelligible.
