T 1.1.4.4

SBN 12 · cited directly by 1 paper, reached by 7 more through page or section ranges · rare passage

Of the three relations above-mention'd this of causation is the most extensive. Two objects may be consider'd as plac'd in this relation, as well when one is the cause of any of the actions or motions of the other, as when the former is the cause of the existence of the latter. For as that action or motion is nothing but the object itself, consider'd in a certain light, and as the object continues the same in all its different situations, 'tis easy to imagine how such an influence of objects upon one another may connect them in the imagination.

A rare passage. Cited by at most three papers, at least one of them focused on personal identity (KAIPAR). These are the passages a focused reader brought into the conversation that the literature otherwise passes by.
