The paper advances the hypothesis that, in the Correspondence with Samuel Clarke, G. W. Leibniz’s arguments that establish that absolute space would contradict the Principles of Sufficient Reason and Identity of Indiscernibles do not directly affect the view according to which the existence of space is absolute. It argues that these arguments concern the homogeneity of space, not its absolute existence.
