Definitions

A role is an entity which is borne in a material entity in some kinds of natural, social or institutional contexts, but which is not essential to the fundamental definition of that material entity (i.e. the material entity exists with or without the role). For example, the role of a person as a surgeon, the role of an artificial heart in pumping blood, the role of a chemical compound in an experiment, the role of a drug in the treatment of a disease.
