summaryThe talk will deal with objections to the structuralist view of mathematical objects, with special attention to the question whether they affect the particular version of that view presented in §18 of [1] and in [2]. Among the relevant authors (some of whom obviously could not have intended to object to this particular formulation) are Paul Bernays, John Burgess, Michael Dummett, Jukka Keränen, and W. V. Quine.
