something like that. Altho it's not really a disjunction. Relations as such
are univocal in their being whether posited of the mind-indep or mind-dep.
Their being is not changed by their 'subjective' (classical sense, )
foundation. Relations are irreducible to the physical or psychical. They
exist 'intersubjectively'. They are not 'accidents' of a substance.....

This is how communication and the escape from subjectivism is possible.
Intentionality is derivative from relationality. Being toward. Referral.  

Things and objects come together univocally in experience in sign relations.
Signs refer to something other than themselves.

More much later. 

"A rose formed by thought is not a rose, nor is Homer in opinion Homer; but
a relation formed by the mind is a true relation.' Cajetan, 1507.
