The Relational Ontology of Personhood. AI-Generated.
Core Thesis Reality is intelligible through ordered relation. To identify anything as a determinate thing is to locate it within distinctions, boundaries, conditions, and modes of relation that make it the kind of thing it is. A thing is not understood merely by naming that it exists. It is understood by asking what it is, where it exists, when it exists, how it exists, what relations make that mode of existence possible, and whether its mode of being rises to the level of personhood.

He rowed all night and didn't knock.
One in the morning. He put down his phone. The screen went dark, reflecting a blurry face. Outside the window, the locust tree swayed in the wind. Leaves rubbed against leaves, the sound brittle. A dog barked twice in the neighboring house, then stopped.
