  As we have already specified above, minimal noneism is merely the core of Sylvan’s noneism which is more elaborate and sophisticated than sketched here. Exactly because of its complexity, noneism forces us to rethink some of our traditional approaches to important philosophical topics. Examples are intensionality, nonexistence, impossibilia, and paradoxicality. Moreover, in the light of these conceptual innovations, Sylvan also discusses some of the relevant applications of noneism in philosophy of mathematics (cf. 1980, 769–781 and 791–833), philosophy of perception (cf. 1980, 649–678), philosophy of time (cf. 1980, 361–410); philosophy of science (cf. 1980, 781–791) and philosophy of fiction (cf. 1980, 537–595).
