Enduring Simples and the Stages They Compose.

In this article I introduce a hybrid view of persistence whereby simple objects persist by enduring while composite objects persist by being stage-related. I first show how, by sharing certain features and not others with the standard (non-hybrid) views of persistence, this hybrid view navigates two...

      ab: In this article I introduce a hybrid view of persistence whereby simple objects persist by enduring while composite objects persist by being stage-related. I first show how, by sharing certain features and not others with the standard (non-hybrid) views of persistence, this hybrid view navigates two metaphysical problems that have been raised against such standard (non-hybrid) views. I then consider some implications of the view by addressing a couple of worries that may be raised against it. I conclude that this hybrid view provides an attractive theory, one that deserves further investigation in the debate on persistence.
