Note 140a

See MARTIN, G., Wilhelm von Ockham, 1949, p.135.
There, speaking about RELATION (in the context of accidents becoming transcendentals), he says (in English translation) :

The transcendental nature of the transcendental relations thus has, as is the case with the original [=traditional] transcendentals, a logical and an ontological aspect. The logical aspect consists in the fact that all transcendental concepts transcend every classification of Being, that they, as passiones convertibiles or as passiones disjunctae NOTE 140aa ),  belong to every being whatsoever. The ontological aspect consists in the fact that transcendental determinations differ from their carrier -- according to Duns Scotus -- not materially but only formally.
