	Maverick Philosopher Call for Comments: Trope Theory Meets Bradley's Regress
		For the trope theorist, properties are particulars; hence the redness of this tomato is as particular as the tomato itself.
		If the trope constituents of a concrete particular C depended for their existence on the existence of C, that would be as absurd as the supposition that the stones out of which a wall is composed depend for their existence on the wall.
		Now given that trope theory is a one-category ontology, an ontology according to which everything is either a trope or a construction from tropes, it follows that the relation of compresence cannot be a universal.

		Trope Monism is the thesis that, at bottom, tropes are all there is. We live in a world of tropes.
		Trope Nominalism is the view that properties can be analyzed in terms of tropes: properties are sets, or sums, of (exactly similar) tropes.
		Trope Monism is (almost) equivalent to the conjunction of Trope Nominalism and Trope Bundle Theory.

		Trope is also embroiled in a serious love-hate relationship with her high school, and even though they broke up several months ago (read: she graduated a year early, and is taking a year off before college to be a first-time author), she's still not quite over it.
		Trope's excellent adventure in publishing began in the spring of her freshman year, when she began sending journal entries to Kevin Sampsell, who had taught a writing class that she took while in middle school.
		Trope is a delighted cynic, horrified by a world where Hummers are a status symbol and Arnold Schwarzenegger is a governor.

	tropes
		Trope nominalism is capable of handling a large number of problems that plague more austere forms of nominalism.
		On one view, tropes are particular because they share the spatio-temporal confinement property of particulars by which they are “confined” to one contiguous world line throughout the duration of their existence.
		Armstrong thinks that “laws” on a trope account would be akin to the “molecular” states of affairs of the regularity theorist where there is no “inner connection” between cause and effect in the individual instances of the law.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Trope
		Trope, in the liturgico-hymnological sense, is a collective name which, since about the close of the Middle Ages or a little later, has been applied to texts of great variety (in both poetry and prose) written for the purpose of amplifying and embellishing an independently complete liturgical text (e.g.
		Tropes of such parts of the Mass and of the Breviary as are chanted.
		The origin of the Tropes, that is to say of the Gradual Tropes (since the Antiphonal Tropes are evidently of a later date), must almost coincide with that of the Proses or Sequences which are most closely related to them; this would mean that their history begins somewhere in the eighth century.

	Wordcarvers: Navigating the Trope-o-sphere
		From these and other comments, I gathered that the trope is the thing that you talk about in the poem instead of talking directly about what the poem is actually about.
		The trope is the "other layer" of the poem, when the poem has more than a literal meaning.
		By moving from the trope, to its referent, then back to the trope, we are drawn to notice the similarities between them: to see the clerk's busy work in a drab place like the busily paddling vermilion feet under the surface of the graygreen lake.

		How language and hope are perceived, how time, trope, the components of narrative are conceived — these fundamental problems determine how our imaginations and our writings are structured: how our work "begins," how it associates, how it operates, and toward what ends and to what end it does or doesn't lead.
		Literary language, the language of trope and representation, is itself a form of ecstatic or transcendental exchange.

		Zoe Trope isn't very sure, either, and her small-press-gone-big memoir makes sure to remind you of that fact every page and a half.
		Scattered among the feisty recountings of Zoe's daily life are guilt, arrogance, self-loathing, and above all else confusion, the sort of ramblings best scrawled into battered composition notebooks with punk rock stickers on the cover.
		In five years, I want to read about where Zoe Trope is. I want to see whether the adolescent weaknesses of her writing have blossomed into confident command of the English language.

	Second-Generation Indian Americans and the Trope of Arranged Marriage
		This paper was originally presented at the conference, "Transnational Cultures Across Generations", held on April 11-12, 2003 at the University of California, Los Angeles.
		It appears that my "psychosis" regarding the question of arranged marriage is not only a personal problem, but rather that the trope of arranged marriage haunts the creative output of a large cross-section of Indian American youth.
		Finally, through an examination of the Indian American film, ABCD (American Born Confused Desi), I will analyze the process by which second-generation Indian Americans generate self-definitions that often remain bounded by this representational matrix, and in so doing often replicate the fixation on arranged marriage as an overarching signifier of diasporic identity.

	Zoe Trope : Please Don't Kill The Freshman : An article by spike magazine
		Post Columbine, High School is a weird kinda place; it's not so much trapped in the aftermath of a shooting-range emporium frenzy as it is floating in the jetsam of Leftist magazines, strange poetry and Birkenstocks.
		Poetry such as this allegedly scored Trope a $100,000 advance to publish her memoirs, not that it's any consolation for the fact that she's had her heart broken, like, a trillion times.
		Trope is so far removed from the legallyblonde glamourpuSS school of pamper-sparkle-and-make-me-vomit-an-overdose-of-Barbie-dom that it's left her peers in a spin, and rapidly navigating her skatergirl trajectory into full scale bloom.
