In Philosophy , an Accident is a property that its bearer has Contingently —that is, a property which its bearer could have failed to have (''without'' having failed to exist), had things been different. Accidental properties are defined by contrast to Essential Properties —properties which their bearer could not have failed to have without having failed to exist (or at least to exist ''as what it is'').
